Financial Coverage for In-Home Care
Long-Term Care Insurance
Some long-term care insurance policies cover certain in-home care services. Check your policy to see if it covers the services you need at home. We work with many long-term care (LTC) insurance companies to bring you the covered services you need over the short- or long-term. We even compile and file the paperwork for you on a monthly basis.
VA Benefits… Aid and Attendance
The Veterans Administration also offers financial programs that help pay for home care. Anyone with military service during a time of war is eligible for Aid & Attendance – criteria met by seventy five percent of all veterans.
Veterans and their surviving spouses who require the assistance of another person, in their own homes or in assisted living – or who have a mental or physical incapacity – are eligible for additional monetary benefits:
- The maximum benefit amount for a veteran who does not have a spouse or dependent child is currently $22,938 / year ($1,912 / month).
- The maximum benefit amount for a married veteran is currently $27,194 / year ($2,266 / month).
- The maximum benefit amount for a surviving spouse is currently $14,761 / year ($1,230 / month).
The Aid & Attendance application process itself is challenging and can be burdened by red tape. However, Veterans Service Officers are available through local VA offices to help you through the process. In the Antelope Valley, call the Department of Military Affairs in Lancaster at 661-974-8842. And in the Santa Clarita Valley, call the Santa Clarita Veteran Services Collaborative at 661-753-3559.
