California’s Medicaid plan is called Medi-Cal. The program helps low-income seniors and disabled citizens pay for nursing home care, doctor and dental care, prescription drugs, transportation, in-home care, adult day health care and personal care services.
Medi-Cal may pay for some or all of the needed services depending on the applicant’s qualifications, which are based on the following general criteria:
Long-Term Care Insurance
Seniors with long-term care insurance have their annual care costs in assisted living and nursing care homes paid by their insurance providers. Typically, there’s a yearly deductible set up at the time the policy is purchased.
Eligibility and policy terms vary across providers and depend on the plan chosen. However, most insurance companies don’t offer this insurance to seniors in poor health or who require daily care. The price of a long-term policy is primarily determined by the policyholder’s age and health history.
Elderlife Bridge Loan
Bridge loans can provide seniors with short-term funding to pay for assisted living care. Funds can be sent to the care facility directly and repaid in monthly installments. Elderlife Financial bridge loans offer low interest rates and flexible terms of up to 24 months.
Eligibility is determined based on a number of factors, including credit history and income. Seniors can have up to six family members cosign their loan application to improve their chances of approval.
Seniors can apply for a bridge loan by calling Elderlife Financial Services at (888) 228-4500.
Optional State Supplement
Federal Supplemental Security Income benefits are available to low-income seniors and disabled citizens who meet the program’s eligibility guidelines. California offers an additional supplemental payment to those who qualify for SSI through its Optional State Supplement program.
The specific payment amount is based on an individual’s age, physical limitations, marital status and living arrangement.
To apply for OSS in Lompoc, contact the Social Security Administration office at (800) 772-1213.
