Cost of In-home Senior Care
Always Family understands that many families are concerned about how much in-home senior care costs in Texas. We believe in complete transparency and educating our client families on how much senior care costs and how it can be funded.
The cost of in-home care varies depending on the level of care the recipient receives to meet their health and lifestyle needs. For example, how many care options will the person need? Care services can include assistance with the Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), help with household tasks, or on-demand health care.
Whether you need help just a few hours per week or on a 24-hour basis will also affect the costs. In some cases, the senior’s geographic location can also affect your in-home care budget.
Although the costs of in-home care can add up, senior home care services offer excellent value you won’t find in senior living communities. According to Genworth’s cost of care survey, the average cost of senior home care is much more affordable than Assisted Living facilities, Skilled Nursing care, or a nursing home.
Always Family is happy to work on solutions that suit your budget and allow your loved one to remain at home, receiving safe, quality care in comfort for as long as possible.
How do families pay for in-home care?
Private Pay
Most families needing home care services fund care privately using financial resources such as Social Security benefits, retirement savings, and life insurance annuities.
Unfortunately, Medicare doesn’t pay for in-home senior care services. However, some older adults can access funding to help cover the costs of in-home care through their long-term care insurance policy or the VA Community Care program. Please see below for more information.
Long-term Care Insurance
Your long-term care insurance policy might offer coverage for in-home care. The terms within your policy will determine how much coverage you’re eligible to receive. Always Family works with ANY insurance provider who offers a home care benefit as part of a long-term care insurance policy. Press the below button for details.
