Assisted Living Costs in Saginaw

The Cost of Assisted Living in Surrounding Areas

Senior care rates in a given city are influenced by factors other than geographic location, such as the skill level of care, total service hours and the type of care setting. The 24-hour skilled care provided&nbsp;by nursing homes and one-on-one care offered by in-home providers is reflected in the higher monthly rates for these types of services compared to assisted living. In-home care rates are deceivingly low in Saginaw because they don’t include the cost of food or housing-related expenses normally covered by assisted living room and board. The cost&nbsp;difference between in-home and assisted living increases significantly when these expenses are factored in.

Program enrollees receive wide-ranging benefits, including primary and specialty care, hospital and emergency care, diagnostic services such as lab tests and X-rays, preventive care, prescription medications and nursing home care. Saginaw residents must be U.S. citizens or legal immigrants to qualify for Michigan Medicaid coverage for long-term care, and they must meet these additional requirements: <ul>

</ul> All income counts toward the above limit, but some assets are automatically excluded, including an applicant’s primary home worth less than $585,000, household furnishings, personal belongings, one automobile and a burial trust. Applicants may still qualify if they’re over the income or asset limits and fit one of these categories: <ul>
