Program for All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly 
 
Florida&rsquo;s&nbsp;<a href="http://elderaffairs.state.fl.us/doea/pace.php" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Program for All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly</a>&nbsp;is designed to reduce the load on nursing homes in the state by providing seniors with alternative care options. Those who require a nursing level of care but wish to continue to live in their community may apply to PACE to receive subsidized rates on medical and social services, including caregiver or nurse visits, medical care, dental care, transportation and assisted living services in an approved assisted living facility. 
 
To be eligible for PACE, seniors must be aged 55 or older and complete a comprehensive care assessment to determine the level of care they require. They must also be able to safely continue to live in their community and meet the financial requirements of Florida&rsquo;s state Medicaid program. To find a PACE provider in Port St. Lucie, seniors can call 1-855-435-7223. 
 
Optional State Supplement 
 
Seniors who are receiving federal supplement security income may also receive optional state supplements. OSS helps SSI recipients pay for the cost of room and board in assisted living or other long-term care facilities. The senior&rsquo;s monthly income and budget determines the OSS benefit amount, which reaches a maximum of $78.40 per month. 
 
To be eligible for the OSS, the applicant&rsquo;s income may not exceed $849.40 per month and they must not have more than $2,000 in assets, including property. Seniors can receive more information or apply for the OSS by calling&nbsp;<a href="http://www.dcf.state.fl.us/service-programs/access/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ACCESS Florida</a>&nbsp;at 1-866-762-2237. 
 
Long-Term Care Insurance 
 
Long-term care insurance generally must be purchased before the need for long-term care exists, but for those who take action early enough, a long-term care insurance policy covers the cost of assisted living services or supportive services in any other approved long-term care facility. There is typically an annual deductible payment when seniors reside in an assisted living facility, but the deductible is far less than the yearly cost of care. 
 
Eligibility, monthly premiums and deductible amounts depend on the provider and plan, but usually, age and the policyholder&rsquo;s past and current health are taken into account when determining rates. 
 
Elderlife Bridge Loan 
 
<a href="https://elderlifefinancial.com/loc/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Elderlife Financial Services</a>&nbsp;provides seniors who aren&rsquo;t eligible for Medicaid with an alternative option. Senior bridge loans are deposited directly to the recipient&rsquo;s care facility and are paid back in monthly installments until the loan and interest are paid in full. Elderlife bridge loans are available with low interest rates and flexible terms. 
 
To receive a bridge loan, seniors must meet credit and income requirements. However, those who don&rsquo;t qualify alone may apply with up to six additional cosigners in order to improve the likelihood of approval and reduce monthly payments.
