Financial Guides
Navigating assisted living costs is complicated. These guides break down every major funding source — Medicare, Medicaid, VA benefits, and tax deductions — in plain language.
Medicare & Medicaid Coverage
Does Medicare cover assisted living? The short answer is no — but Medicaid HCBS waivers may. Learn what each program covers, eligibility rules, and how to apply.
Tax Deductions for Assisted Living
Assisted living costs may be partially tax-deductible if the resident qualifies as chronically ill. Learn the IRS rules, qualifying expenses, and how to claim the deduction.
Veterans Benefits for Assisted Living
The VA Aid & Attendance benefit pays up to $2,431/month for veterans who need help with daily activities. Learn eligibility requirements and how to apply.
