Medicaid: Arizona Long-term Care System
Based upon your financial situation and care needs, you may qualify for state assistance. The Arizona Long-term Care System is Arizona’s Medicaid program. To find out if you qualify, call the state department at: 602-417-6600 or 520-205-8600
Worker’s Compensation Insurance
If you were involved in a work-related accident that has caused your need for care at home, you may qualify for home care services through your company’s worker’s compensation insurance program.
Reverse Mortgage
Reverse mortgages were developed originally by the U.S. government specifically to help seniors (originally widows) stay in their homes until the end of their lives. This program allows for seniors to use the value of the equity in their home to pull out cash. You can receive these funds either in one lump sum or through monthly payments. A reverse mortgage gives your loved one the ability to stay home and receive the care that he or she needs until the end of life, even if by that time the loan balance exceeds the home’s worth.
Private Pay
After utilizing any other funding options, families can pull together funds to cover the cost of care. This can be done by splitting the cost among siblings, selling certain assets, and cashing out stocks or bonds.
