Cost of Assisted Living Comparison Chart:

Costs for senior care are based on the type of service, the number of direct service hours and the location. In Apopka,&nbsp;nursing home care in a semiprivate room costs more than double what assisted living costs, while homemaker services and a home health aide are also more expensive than assisted living.&nbsp;

When considering the total monthly cost of senior care it&rsquo;s important to factor in daily living costs such as rent, food and home maintenance&nbsp;that are usually included with residential care services for seniors.&nbsp;

Assisted Living in Apopka, FL

Medicaid is a nationwide health insurance program that provides low-income, low-asset Americans with limited access to services and supports that promote health and wellness. Medicaid is a joint program between the federal and state governments, and in Florida, the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.fdhc.state.fl.us/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Agency for Health Care Administration</a>, a branch of&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.dcf.state.fl.us/service-programs/access/medicaid.shtml" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Florida Department of Children and Families</a>, administers Medicaid.

Florida seniors aged 65 and older must meet strict income and asset criteria to qualify for Medicaid coverage. Individual seniors can earn no more than $2,313 a month and own no more than $2,000 in countable assets, while couples applying together can earn no more than $4,626 per month and own no more than $3,000 in countable assets.&nbsp;

Under Medicaid rules, countable assets include cash, bonds and investment real estate, while income from all sources includes wages, pension, stock dividends and alimony.&nbsp;Some assets are excluded, such as personal effects, furniture, one vehicle and a principal residence valued at $585,000 or less.&nbsp;

Like all states except California, Florida has a five-year Medicaid asset look-back period. Seniors who apply for Medicaid may be subject to penalties on any assets they&nbsp;transferred or gifted during the 60-month period prior&nbsp;to their Medicaid application. Medicaid look-back penalties are assigned based on a calculation that divides the total value of the uncompensated transfers divided by the average monthly cost of a private-pay nursing home to determine the Medicaid ineligibility period.&nbsp;

Seniors in Florida who meet the criteria for Medicaid coverage and have needs that would normally require nursing home placement may be eligible for additional assistance through the&nbsp;<a href="http://elderaffairs.state.fl.us/doea/smmcltc.php" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Florida Statewide&nbsp;Medicaid Managed Care, Long-Term Care Program</a>, or SMMC&nbsp;LTC.&nbsp;

The LTC&nbsp;program is designed to reduce statewide&nbsp;nursing home admission rates by providing seniors with long-term care services in their homes, the community or an assisted living facility. These services are distributed according to the seniors&rsquo; long-term care plan and may include:

<ul>
	<li>Attendant care and adult day care</li>
	<li>Homemaker&nbsp;</li>
	<li>Medication administration and management</li>
	<li>Personal care</li>
	<li>Skilled nursing</li>
	<li>Respite care</li>
	<li>Transportation</li>
	<li>Physical, speech and occupational therapy</li>
</ul>

To learn more about Medicaid and the Florida Statewide&nbsp;Medicaid Managed Care and Long Term Care Program, call the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.fdhc.state.fl.us/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Agency for Health Care Administration</a>&nbsp;at (877) 711-3662 or the Florida Elder Helpline at (800) 963-5337.&nbsp;
