Care Cost Comparison
In Newark, residing in an assisted living facility costs approximately $500 less per month than employing a home health aide. Similarly, the cost of homemaker services, where an aide helps individuals with tasks such as cooking and cleaning in the home, is about $200 per month more than assisted living. While assisted living costs typically include room and board, home health services do not, making the gap in prices even wider. At $9,125 per month, full-time skilled nursing home care is the most expensive care type. Adult day health services are the least expensive and may be an option for those who are mobile and only require care during daytime hours.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Newark
Medicaid in California
Medi-Cal is California’s Medicaid plan and provides health insurance coverage to qualified low-income individuals and people with disabilities. Benefits offered through Medi-Cal include:
- Doctor and hospital visits
- Chronic disease management
- Skilled nursing care
- Prescription drugs
- Mental health services
- Physical therapy
Applicants should be at least 65 years old, blind or disabled to qualify. Meeting one or more of the following criteria may also make an applicant eligible:
- Earn annual income under $16,395 (individual) or $22,108 (married couple)
- Have no more than $2,000 (individual) or $3,000 (married couple) in assets, not including one’s car, home or personal items
- Receive Supplemental Security Income
- Live in an intermediate care facility or nursing home
- Participate in a Refugee Assistance program
Seniors can apply for Medi-Cal in person at the Alameda County Social Services Agency at 24100 Amador St., Hayward, CA 94544 or complete an application online.
Assisted Living Waiver
Alameda residents may qualify for additional services through the Assisted Living waiver. This program is available to Medi-Cal recipients who require a nursing facility level of care but wish to live in an assisted living home.
Participants may receive benefits such as:
- Care coordination and creation of an individualized service plan designed to meet each participant’s needs
- Assistance with activities of daily living, meals and transportation provided by the assisted living facility
- Mental health services
- Medication management
According to 2018 data, ALW participants pay a standard monthly rate for room and board of $1,059.37 if their income is greater than $1,193.37. If they receive SSI of $1,173.37, their monthly rate is $1,039.37.
Medi-Cal recipients interested in the ALW should contact the NorCal Care Coordinator Agency at (916) 385-2784 to determine their eligibility and care needs and begin the assessment process.
Other Financial Assistance Programs for Assisted Living
Veterans Aid and Attendance
The federal Aid and Attendance program may be available to eligible senior veterans and their surviving spouses. Similar to the Housebound program, which provides financial assistance to veterans confined to their home due to disability, the Aid and Attendance program gives qualified individuals monetary compensation in addition to their monthly pension.
Veterans and their surviving spouses may only participate in one of the programs mentioned above at one time and must already receive a pension to qualify. Additionally, interested individuals must meet at least one of the following criteria:
- Reside in a skilled nursing facility
- Be bedridden
- Have impaired eyesight of no more than 5/200 corrected vision in each eye or 5 degrees maximum contraction of the visual field
- Require caregiver assistance for activities of daily living such as eating, bathing and dressing
Annual income limits of $22,576 for individuals and $26,756 for married couples also apply.
To request participation in the Aid and Attendance program, seniors should send a detailed written report demonstrating their level of disability and mobility to the St. Paul VA Regional Office at PO Box 5365, Janesville, WI 53547 or visit the Oakland Regional Office at 1301 Clay St., North Tower, Oakland, CA 94612.
Elderlife Bridge Loans
Elderlife Financial bridge loans give qualified seniors a short-term line of credit to help pay for the cost of assisted living for up to 12 months. These loans are well suited to those waiting on other benefits assistance or awaiting the sale of their home. With a fast application process and the potential of receiving the loan as quickly as 24 hours after approval, bridge loans let seniors use the funds to pay for expenses such as moving costs, move-in fees and room and board at the community of their choice.
To determine an applicant’s eligibility, Elderlife looks at an individual’s financial information, including credit scores, assets and income. The company permits multiple family members to serve as co-applicants, so credit scores may be combined, making it easier for a senior with a low credit score to qualify. In addition to these financial factors, seniors should have a plan for how they will pay for assisted living themselves once the loan term ends.
