Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Vancouver

Medicaid Personal Choice Program Elderly Medicaid recipients can apply for the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hca.wa.gov/health-care-services-supports/program-administration/medicaid-personal-care" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.hca.wa.gov/health-care-services-supports/program-administration/medicaid-personal-care" rel="noopener noreferrer">Medicaid Personal Care (MPC)</a>&nbsp;program. This program gives seniors the flexibility to receive in-home assistance or reside at an assisted living facility. Seniors who need help with hygiene-related tasks such as bathing or using the bathroom can remain at home and select their preferred caregiver. This may be a medical professional, friend or family member. Medicaid recipients can apply for the MPC program by contacting their Medicaid caseworker or eligibility specialist. Community First Choice Option The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hca.wa.gov/health-care-services-supports/program-administration/community-first-choice" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.hca.wa.gov/health-care-services-supports/program-administration/community-first-choice" rel="noopener noreferrer">Community First Choice Option (CFCO)</a>&nbsp;is another Medicaid program that provides benefits for seniors who need institutional-level care. The CFCO program helps cover personal care assistance, medication assistance and assistive technology for participants who wish to delay or avoid nursing home residency. Seniors can remain in their own homes, stay with family members or live in an assisted living facility. As with the MPC program, seniors can choose their own caretakers. Enrollment is not automatic for qualifying seniors. Seniors must contact their local Medicaid office and request to participate in this program. In additional to annual income limits, current resources are typically capped at $2,000 for individuals and $3,000 for married couples. Washington Medicaid COPES (Community Options Program Entry System) Qualifying seniors can receive supportive services from the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dshs.wa.gov/altsa/stakeholders/hcbs-%E2%80%93-copes-draft-waiver-renewal-application" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.dshs.wa.gov/altsa/stakeholders/hcbs-%E2%80%93-copes-draft-waiver-renewal-application" rel="noopener noreferrer">Washington Medicaid COPES</a>(Community Options Program Entry System) waiver. In-home services, such as meal delivery and home health care are available. Seniors can also receive benefits at an assisted living facility. The Washington Medicaid COPES program differs from the CFCO and MPC programs by implementing a cap on recipients. A senior may meet the eligibility requirements for COPES yet still not receive services due to the cap. This program is also available for disabled Washington residents who are 18 to 64 years old.
