Ways to Pay for Your Care
There's more than one way to pay for home care, and most families don't know all of them going in. Most are surprised how many options actually apply to them.
New York Medicaid can cover home care at no cost to you, if you qualify. We accept most major Medicaid managed care plans and can help you find out whether you're a strong candidate, at no cost to your family.
If you don't have Medicaid, or don't want to wait on an application, Private Pay lets care start on your terms.
If you have a long-term care policy, we can work with your insurer to help coordinate coverage.
Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA programs that help cover home care costs. Ask us and we'll point you toward the right VA office.
We proudly accept a wide range of insurance providers to make your care accessible.
Not sure if you qualify for Medicaid home care? We'll help you find out, at no cost to your family.
