Assisted Living Costs in Santa Rosa

Cost of Assisted Living Comparison Chart

The average cost of care typically depends on the type of care needed, and in places like Santa Rosa, this is especially true. The average monthly cost of nursing&nbsp;home care in the city is nearly double that of assisted living. Although the cost of home care and the cost of assisted living are similar, seniors who choose to keep living in their home should budget for additional costs, such as rent, groceries, utilities and maintenance, all of which are typically included in the cost of assisted living.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Santa Rosa

State Supplemental Payment 
 
Supplemental Security Income recipients can apply for California&rsquo;s&nbsp;<a href="https://ca.db101.org/ca/programs/income_support/ssi/faqs.htm#_q339" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">State Supplemental Payment</a>. This is a cash benefit that&rsquo;s provided to seniors who require additional financial aid to pay for the cost of room and board in an assisted living or nursing care facility. The amount of the benefit is determined by the applicant&rsquo;s income and is paid out at a maximum of $160.72 each month.&nbsp; 
 
The financial eligibility requirements for this program change regularly. To obtain information about these requirements or to apply for the benefit, seniors should contact their local Social Security office in person or call (800) 772-1213.&nbsp; 
 
Elderlife&nbsp;Bridge Loan 
 
For seniors who are unable to receive Medicaid or other government financial assistance,&nbsp;<a href="https://elderlifefinancial.com/loc/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Elderlife&nbsp;Financial Services</a>&nbsp;provides assistance in paying for the cost of assisted living by offering elder bridge loans to seniors. Bridge loans are paid directly to the applicant&rsquo;s assisted living facility&nbsp;upon approval and are paid back in monthly installments by the senior and their cosigners. 
 
Eligibility is dependent on credit and income, but applicants can use up to six cosigners,&nbsp;which can increase their chances of approval&nbsp;and help to reduce monthly payments. Seniors can apply for a loan online or by calling (888) 228-4500.

<a href="http://www.medi-cal.ca.gov/default.asp" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Medi-Cal</a>&nbsp;is California&rsquo;s state Medicaid Managed Care Program. It provides low-income residents of California with access to a range of services that includes medical and dental care, long-term residential care, supportive services and necessary medical supplies. The program primarily serves seniors, disabled individuals and those with temporary conditions including pregnancy. Seniors who wish to receive funding for assisted living must apply under either the Assisted Living Waiver or the Multipurpose Senior Services Program.&nbsp; 
 
Eligibility for these waivers depends on several factors. Seniors must need regular nursing care while being capable of living safely within an assisted living facility. Income requirements for this program stipulate that individuals may not have a monthly income exceeding $1,242 or assets valued at more than $2,000, and couples may not have a monthly income exceeding $1,682 or assets exceeding $3,000 
 
Assisted Living Waiver 
 
The <a href="https://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/ltc/pages/assistedlivingwaiver.aspx" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Assisted Living Waiver </a>program provides seniors who are living in assisted living facilities with financial assistance and supportive services including nurse visits, nonmedical transportation, medical care and dental care. Although the cost of services provided by the assisted living facility are covered under this program, seniors are required to pay for room and board.&nbsp; 
 
To apply for the Assisted Living Waiver, seniors can contact their&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/ltc/Documents/Care-Coordination-Agencies-2018.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">nearest care coordination agency</a>&nbsp;in person or by telephone.&nbsp; 
 
Multipurpose Senior Services Program 
 
Medi-Cal&rsquo;s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/medi-cal/Pages/MSSPMedi-CalWaiver.aspx#services" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Multipurpose Senior Services Program</a>&nbsp;(MSSP) also provides support to seniors residing in assisted living facilities. The MSSP&nbsp;is similar to the Assisted Living Waiver in that it provides support to seniors in assisted living facilities who require a nursing home level of care. However, this waiver program is also available to seniors who have chosen to continue living at home and require access to home health care. Seniors who participate in the MSSP&nbsp;are assessed to determine their needs and have services assigned to them as required. The program provides a range of assistance including nurse visits, respite care, occupational therapy, physical therapy, case management and nonmedical transportation. 
 
There are only 12,000 seniors accepted into this program, which means the waiting list can get rather long. Eligibility requirements for MSSP&nbsp;are the same as for the Assisted Living Waiver, and seniors are generally asked to reapply annually.&nbsp; 
 
To learn more about the application process, seniors can contact the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dhcs.ca.gov/Pages/contact_us.aspx" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">California Department of Health Care Services</a>&nbsp;at (707) 565-4700.
