Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in New Orleans

Senior Bridge Loans Many seniors pay for assisted living with reverse mortgages, home sales, Medicaid waivers or veterans benefits. However, these earnings and benefits are not always available immediately.&nbsp;When seniors need money for assisted care right away,&nbsp;bridge loans from&nbsp;<a href="https://elderlifefinancial.com/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://elderlifefinancial.com" rel="noopener noreferrer">Elderlife Financial Services</a>&nbsp;provide short-term financial assistance, typically for 12 to 18 months or less, for&nbsp;approved seniors.&nbsp; Seniors do not have to qualify alone or with a spouse as Elderlife&nbsp;Financial Services lets up to six family members&nbsp;cosign&nbsp;each loan on behalf of the recipient. Elderlife sends funds to approved senior living facilities rather than to seniors or their loved ones, so there are no delays when paying for assisted care. Medicaid and Medicare recipients can apply for senior bridge loans. These loans typically do not count against the $2,000 or $3,000 asset requirements because they are distributed directly to approved facilities rather than to qualifying seniors. SSI&nbsp;State Supplementary Payments Louisiana offers state-funded benefits to supplement&nbsp;federal Social Security Income&nbsp;benefits. Known as&nbsp;SSI&nbsp;state supplemental payments, this state-funded resource&nbsp;is available&nbsp;for seniors who meet income and asset requirements. Approximately&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/statcomps/ssi_sc/2017/la.html" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/statcomps/ssi_sc/2017/la.html" rel="noopener noreferrer">33,000 seniors</a> age 65 and older receive these benefits. Seniors can learn more about SSI&nbsp;state supplemental payments online by visiting the <a href="https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/progdesc/ssi_st_asst/2011/guide.html" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/progdesc/ssi_st_asst/2011/guide.html" rel="noopener noreferrer">Social Security Office of Retirement and Disability Policy</a>.

Medicaid is a state-funded medical program that helps participants pay for qualifying medical expenses, including those associated with assisted living. When seniors participate in both Medicaid and Medicare, Louisiana providers treat Medicare as the primary insurance source. Medicaid helps cover costs that remain after Medicare pays approved providers. Some seniors may qualify for assistance with Medicare premiums through the <a href="http://ldh.la.gov/index.cfm/page/236" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://ldh.la.gov/index.cfm/page/236" rel="noopener noreferrer">Medicaid Savings Program</a>. This program also helps with prescription expenses for seniors who participate in the&nbsp;Medicare Part D prescription drug plan. Information is available via telephone at (888) 544-7996. Seniors interested in obtaining Medicaid coverage can apply online via the&nbsp;<a href="https://sspweb.lameds.ldh.la.gov/selfservice" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://sspweb.lameds.ldh.la.gov/selfservice" rel="noopener noreferrer">Louisiana Medicaid Online Application.</a>&nbsp;Applications are also accepted via postal mail at&nbsp;P.O. Box 91278, Baton Rouge, LA, 70821-9278, via fax at (877) 523-2987 or in person at <a href="http://ldh.la.gov/index.cfm/directory/category/158" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://ldh.la.gov/index.cfm/directory/category/158" rel="noopener noreferrer">local Medicaid offices</a>. Contact the Medicaid hotline&nbsp;at (888) 342-6207 between the hours of 7 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday for questions about the application process or current benefits. Louisiana Community Choices Waiver The&nbsp;<a href="http://ldh.la.gov/index.cfm/page/380" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://ldh.la.gov/index.cfm/page/380" rel="noopener noreferrer">Louisiana Community Choices Waiver</a> helps New Orleans’ seniors afford costs associated with in-home services or assisted living facilities. The waiver helps postpone or prevent nursing home care by covering medical expenses that help seniors age safely and comfortably with appropriate supports. Seniors must qualify for Medicaid and meet predetermined income limits prior to approval for the Louisiana Community Choices Waiver. Individuals must have a monthly income at or below $2,313&nbsp;and assets of $2,000 or less. The income limit&nbsp;doubles to $4,626 per month for married couples, and the asset limit&nbsp;increases to $3,000. Some property, such as a home valued at $585,000 or less, does not count toward the asset restrictions for single&nbsp;or married applicants.&nbsp; Seniors interested in this waiver may also want to consider other financial assistance options for care because the Community Choices Waiver program often has a waiting list.
