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.

Medicaid is a state-funded medical program that helps participants pay for qualifying medical expenses, including those associated with assisted living.

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>.

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.

There is an alternative to nursing homes, and to large assisted living facilities, for yourself or your loved one!

Many seniors simply do not want or need a nursing staff in their place of residence, preferring the now well known advantages of assisted living. Whats new, however, is the concept of irresistibly small assisted living locations, called Residential Care Homesnormal suburban houses transformed into comfortable and totally accessible assisted living homeswhere surprisingly small numbers of residents and their caregivers quickly become best of friends.

Imagine a licensed assisted living facility in a suburban house whose appearance is that of a single-family residence, and whose interior offers the appearance and comforts of a family home, but whose family is a group of senior citizens who wish to avoid more crowded conditions but also wish to escape the isolation and expense of home care. Our Residential Care Homes offer a quantum leap in the individual attention and affection residents receive, not to mention the emotional comfort they derive from such cozy homelike settings.

In each of our four Academy House locations, friends converge three times a day around a family-style dining table and, most other times, can be found in the den in their favorite chairs for snacks, music and conversation. The comfortable bedrooms are just a few steps away, but the vast majority prefer the company of their friends in the indoor and outdoor common areas.
