Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Lawrenceville

Medicaid in Georgia

Medicaid, a government-funded health plan for low-income Americans, provides essential health care benefits for children, seniors, adults with disabilities and pregnant women. Medicaid is regulated at the federal level and administered by each state. Mandatory benefits include nursing facility services, hospitalization, diagnostic testing and doctor visits. 

Seniors in Lawrenceville may qualify for Medicaid coverage if they meet the income and asset limits. Single seniors can earn up to $2,313 per month, and couples applying together can earn up to $4,626 per month. 

Asset limits are set at $2,000 per individual and $3,000 per couple. All cash and investments are rated as countable assets, while one vehicle and an owner-occupied residence is excluded as long as the home is assessed at $585,000 or less. 

If only one spouse in a married couple needs Medicaid coverage, any income earned by the non-applicant (community) spouse is disregarded. The community spouse can also keep up to half of the couple’s jointly owned assets up to an assessed value of $126,420. 

For more information about Georgia Medicaid or to receive help applying for coverage, call (800) 436-7442.

Medicaid Waivers

Georgia seniors who meet the financial criteria for Medicaid enrollment and need nursing home level of care may qualify for one of two home and community-based Medicaid waivers. Eligible seniors must complete a comprehensive needs assessment to determine what services and supports they need to avoid institutionalization. 

Note: Each waiver has enrollment limits, therefore, seniors may be added to a wait list for services. 

Community Care Services Program

The Community Care Services Program is a nursing home diversion program that provides seniors with community-based services, such as: 

  • Adult day health care
  • A personal medical alert system
  • In-home skilled nursing care
  • Personal care to assist with activities of daily living
  • Housekeeping 
  • Rehabilitation therapies, such as physical, occupational and speech therapy


For more information contact the Northwest Georgia Area Agency on Aging at (800) 759-2963. 

Service Options Using Resources in a Community Environment

The Service Options Using Resources in a Community Environment waiver provides similar services and supports as the CCSP waiver, and the target population is the same. 

For more information on SOURCE and to request an assessment, contact the Home and Community-Based Services info line at (866) 552-4464. 

Other Financial Assistance Programs for Assisted Living

Optional State Supplementation

Seniors who qualify for Supplemental Security Income benefits and live in an assisted living facility may be eligible for additional funding through Georgia’s Optional State Supplementation program.

The OSS provides SSI top-up money that seniors can use towards the room-and-board portion of their care costs. For single seniors, the maximum monthly OSS payment is $20, and couples can receive up to $40.

To qualify for OSS, seniors must be on SSI and reside in a licensed Medicaid facility. To learn more about Georgia’s OSS, seniors can phone the Social Security Administration at (800) 772-1213.

VA Enhanced Monthly Pension 

There are two special VA pension programs that eligible veterans and survivors can use to finance assisted living costs, Aid and Attendance and Housebound. These programs pay higher benefits than the regular VA pension, and to qualify, claimants must be eligible for a regular VA pension. 

For Aid and Attendance, at least one of the following criteria must be met:

  • Be restricted to bed due to a permanent disability
  • Have corrected vision in both eyes tested at 5/200 or worse
  • Be a resident in a nursing facility due to physical and/or cognitive issues
  • Have concentric contraction of the visual field of 5 degrees or less
  • Need help from a caregiver daily to eat, get dressed, bathe and be mobile.


For Housebound, applicants must: 

  • Have a permanent disability that meets the 100% disability VA requirements limiting the applicant to their home, or
  • Have a permanent disability with a VA rating of 100%, and one or more  additional disabilities rated at 60% or more
