Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
The average monthly costs of home care and home health care in Lubbock are $4,143, which is 21.7% below the monthly cost of care in a nursing home for a semiprivate room. Private rooms in nursing homes are nearly double the $3,425 seniors spend on assisted living, making it the city’s most expensive care option. The most affordable type of care in Lubbock is adult day health care. Assuming 44 hours a week of assistance, seniors pay less for seven months of adult day health care than one month of care in a nursing home.
