Questions Cleveland families ask

What are the main ways Cleveland-area families actually pay for senior care?

Most families use some combination of private pay (savings, home sale proceeds, retirement income), long-term care insurance, VA Aid & Attendance for eligible veterans and surviving spouses, and Medicaid once financial and clinical eligibility are met. Medicaid's Assisted Living Waiver and PASSPORT cover services, not room and board, so private funds typically continue covering the room-and-board portion even after Medicaid approval.

What is VA Aid & Attendance and how much can it provide?

VA Aid & Attendance is a pension benefit add-on for wartime veterans and surviving spouses who need help with daily activities. As of December 1, 2025, maximum annual pension rates range from about $18,697 for a surviving spouse with no dependents up to about $46,143 for two married veterans both eligible; VA pays the difference between countable income and the applicable maximum, and unreimbursed medical expenses, including assisted living or home care costs, reduce countable income. These rates are federal and identical in every state, including Ohio.

What does long-term care insurance typically cover for a senior in Ohio?

Long-term care insurance policies vary by contract, but most cover some combination of nursing home care, assisted living, home care, and adult day care up to a daily or monthly benefit cap and a lifetime maximum, after an elimination period. Ohio does not regulate benefit levels directly; what a specific policy pays depends entirely on its own terms, so families should review the actual policy document rather than assume standard coverage.

How does the cost of in-home care in Ohio compare to moving to a facility?

According to the 2025 CareScout survey, a non-medical caregiver in Ohio runs about $34 an hour, while assisted living runs a median of $6,103 a month. At roughly 20 hours a week, hourly in-home care can cost less than assisted living, but full-time round-the-clock in-home care quickly exceeds facility costs since hourly rates add up fast across 24-hour coverage.
