Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Victoria, Texas

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.

  • Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one’s stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days in a skilled nursing facility, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those in need of long-term care will need to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
  • Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the costs of living in a skilled nursing facility for those who qualify. Care, room, and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras like specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility standards are strict and complex, so not all seniors are eligible for Medicaid benefits.
  • Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including 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.

Free Resources for Seniors in Victoria, Texas

The following resources may be of interest to seniors who are looking for services that will help them to safely age in place in their own homes. These services may make it easier for seniors to remain at home and delay the need for them to move to nursing home care.

ResourceContactService
Meals on Wheels Victoria(361) 576-2189The Meals on Wheels program delivers a nutritious meal to homebound seniors. In order to qualify for the program, seniors need to be aged 60 or older and no longer able to prepare a meal for themselves. The meals are delivered on a Monday each week in microwave-safe containers, allowing seniors to easily reheat a meal each day for the rest of the week. The meals are delivered by volunteer drivers who provide a social check service at the same time as delivering the meal. Volunteers report any issues they may find to trained staff members or the relevant authorities. There is a small charge for each meal, but seniors will not be turned away if they are unable to pay for the service.
Social Reassurance Program(361) 576-2189The Social Reassurance Program matches volunteers with seniors in the area. These volunteers contact the seniors through a phone call or social media on a weekly basis. The volunteers are able to check on the mental and physical wellbeing of seniors during these weekly contact sessions. They will then report any concerns to staff members who will then contact family members or the relevant authorities. 
Transportation(316) 576-2189The Victoria Senior Citizens Center provides curb-to-curb transportation services to seniors aged 60 and over who no longer have access to transport. The service runs in the mornings from Tuesday to Friday each week. Seniors need to contact the service to book a ride at least 24 hours in advance. Transportation is provided to grocery stores, medical appointments, community destinations and personal care appointments. There is a small donation requested for each ride, but transport will still be provided even if the senior cannot afford to contribute.
