Private Pay/Out of Pocket
Overview:
Most families choose to pay for in-home care for a loved one out of pocket. This is true for many senior care services, including assisted living. While in-home care is generally more affordable than facility-based care, costs are determined based on the type of care and the number of hours a senior needs. We recommend that anyone interested in finding out more contact a Top-Tier Home Care office to discuss what would be included in a custom care plan, and whether personal care, companionship, or respite care is needed.
Minimizing Costs:
Determining out-of-pocket costs and how to minimize them is best done after considering all your options. To find out more about the cost of care for you or a loved one, please contact a local Top-Tier Home Care office to discuss your specific situation.
Long-Term Care Insurance
Overview: Long-term care insurance can be a valuable resource to help pay the costs of care. For seniors who have long-term care insurance, a local Top-Tier Home Care office can assist in answering questions about the paperwork needed to start using this specialized type of coverage.
Veterans Administration (VA) Aid and Attendance Pension Benefit
Overview: Veterans and their surviving spouses may qualify for VA benefits to help cover some of the cost of in-home care. VA programs were designed for those who meet specific financial criteria and demonstrate physical need for in-home care. Please contact Top-Tier Home Care to find out more about in-home care and veteran's benefits.
Medicaid and State Programs
Overview: Medicaid, the largest public payer for long-term care, may cover some in-home care services. A Medicaid provider or a Top-Tier Home Care office can answer questions about in-home care coverage.
Medicare
Overview: It's important to note that Medicare does not typically cover the costs of in-home care. However, in some select areas, Medicare Advantage plans may be available. Coverage varies by state and location, so it's recommended to check your plan for additional details.
Payment Options at Top-Tier Home Care
At Top-Tier Home Care, we offer flexible payment options for our in-home care services. Currently, we accept VA Triwest insurance through the VA Community Care Network and private pay as the primary payment methods.
VA Community Care Network and VA Triwest Insurance
