Assisted Living — frequently asked questions
How much does assisted living cost?+
The national median is around $4,500 per month, though it ranges from roughly $2,500 to $9,000 depending on location, apartment size, and level of care.
Does Medicare pay for assisted living?+
Medicare does not cover the room-and-board cost of assisted living. Medicaid may help in many states through waivers, and VA benefits can offset costs for eligible veterans.
What's the difference from a nursing home?+
Assisted living is for people who need help with daily tasks but are largely independent. Nursing homes (skilled nursing) provide 24-hour medical and rehabilitative care.
