Under the PACE guidelines, seniors may live independently or reside in an assisted living community. PACE provides daily nursing care as well as additional medical and social services at a fraction of the cost of nursing care. To be eligible, individuals must be age 55 or older and submit to a comprehensive assessment to determine the level of care they require.

The company offers low-cost loans to seniors with reasonable monthly payments. These loans help seniors pay for the cost of assisted living and other senior care options and can be paid directly to an assisted living facility.

The OSS benefit can help to pay the cost of room and board in an assisted living facility. It’s calculated based on the individual’s income, which cannot exceed $849.40 per month and has a maximum payout of $78.40 monthly. To be eligible, seniors may not exceed monthly income limits and may not possess assets valued at more than $2,000 per individual or $3,000 per couple.

The price of long-term care insurance varies drastically depending on a number of factors, including the policyholder’s health, the average cost of care and the type of plan purchased.
