Seniors who meet income and asset guidelines may receive health&nbsp;insurance&nbsp;at little or no cost through <a href="https://www.illinois.gov/hfs/Pages/default.aspx" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.illinois.gov/hfs/Pages/default.aspx" rel="noopener noreferrer">Illinois&nbsp;Medicaid</a>. This entitlement program is jointly funded by the federal and state governments and covers preventive and routine medical care, hospital stays and prescription drugs. Illinois’ Medicaid program also covers nursing home care and some in-home care services but not assisted living.&nbsp; To be eligible for Illinois Medicaid, seniors must be at least 65 years old, legal U.S. citizens and permanent residents of Illinois. Single applicants can have a monthly income of up to $1,041 and up to $2,000 in countable assets. Married couples who are both applying can have a monthly income of up to $1,409 and $3,000 in countable assets. If only one spouse is applying for Medicaid, only their income counts. Supportive Living Waiver Currently, Illinois Medicaid offers one waiver that covers assisted living services called the <a href="https://www.illinois.gov/hfs/MedicalPrograms/slf/Pages/default.aspx" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.illinois.gov/hfs/MedicalPrograms/slf/Pages/default.aspx" rel="noopener noreferrer">Supportive Living waiver</a>. This waiver is for seniors whose care needs qualify them for nursing home placement but who wish to stay in an assisted living facility. While room-and-board fees are not covered under this waiver, services like personal care services, chore services and medication management are covered.&nbsp;&nbsp; To qualify for the SLW, applicants must meet regular Medicaid eligibility criteria. Unlike regular Medicaid, which guarantees coverage for all eligible applicants, waiver programs have enrollment caps, and qualified applicants may be placed on a waiting list until services are available.&nbsp;&nbsp; Seniors can apply for Medicaid through the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.healthcare.gov/medicaid-chip/getting-medicaid-chip/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.healthcare.gov/medicaid-chip/getting-medicaid-chip/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Health Insurance Marketplace</a> or directly through&nbsp;the <a href="http://www.dhs.state.il.us/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://www.dhs.state.il.us/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Illinois Department of Human Services</a>. To receive more information, Wilmette residents can call (847) 745-3200.&nbsp;

Luxury Independent, Assisted and Memory Care Senior Living in the heart of Evanston.

The Montclair is a Luxury Assisted Living and Memory Care community opening early 2024 in Morton Grove, IL.
 
As a company, we did extensive research to see where we can fill in the gaps of what senior needs are and what is missing in the local market. What we learned during our research was that the senior living industry has become so high-priced that many seniors cannot afford to get quality community-based care to support their activities of daily living or memory impairment. 

Much of the senior living industry has forgotten about the main purpose of senior living: quality, accessible resident care. We decided as a company to change this. The Montclair of Morton Grove will offer luxury senior living to our residents at an affordable price, allowing for accessibility to help those in need.
