Cost of Assisted Living Comparison Chart

The cost of senior care depends a great deal on the level of care that&rsquo;s required, and this is especially true in Phoenix, where the average cost of nursing home care is nearly $3,000 more than assisted living. Homemaker services and home health aides cost considerably more than assisted living in Phoenix as well. When evaluating home-service costs, it&rsquo;s important to account for housing costs, such as rent, utilities and upkeep, as these expenses would be in addition to the care rates. Assisted living costs include services, room and board.

HCBS is a program provided by the Arizona Department of Economic Security in partnership with the Area Agency on Aging. It&rsquo;s for seniors who would otherwise require admission to a nursing home if additional care wasn&rsquo;t provided and covers a range of services including nurse visits, respite care and transportation.

Eligibility is determined on a case-by-case basis by an Area Agency on Aging caseworker. Phoenix seniors can apply for this program in person at the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.aaaphx.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Maricopa County Area Agency on Aging</a>&nbsp;office or by phoning <a href="tel:+16022644357">(602) 264-4357</a>.

Elderlife Bridge Loan

When seniors are ineligible for Medicaid assistance yet unable to pay for the cost of assisted living without financial help, elder bridge loans from companies such as&nbsp;<a href="https://elderlifefinancial.com/loc/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Elderlife Financial Services</a>&nbsp;may be an option. Bridge loans go directly to the assisted living or other long-term care facility where the senior resides and are paid back in installments. Seniors and any cosigners are responsible for making the payments in full. Elderlife bridge loans offer flexible payment options and low interest rates.

Eligibility depends on credit and income; however, seniors may apply and share payments with up to six applicants to increase their chances of approval. Seniors applying for a bridge loan must reside in an approved facility or be scheduled to move into one.
