How to Pay for Memory Care Facility in California
Paying for a memory care facility in California often involves a combination of personal resources, insurance, and government assistance. Here are the most common options:
- Private Pay (Savings, Retirement Funds, Home Sale, or Family Support): Most families use personal resources like savings, pensions, retirement accounts, or proceeds from selling a home to pay for memory care.
- Long-Term Care Insurance: Some long-term care insurance policies help cover the cost of memory care. Review your policy or speak with your provider to confirm coverage.
- Medicaid (Medi-Cal and Assisted Living Waiver): California’s Medicaid program is called Medi-Cal. The Assisted Living Waiver (ALW) may help eligible seniors pay for memory care in certain participating facilities. Not all communities accept Medi-Cal or participate in the waiver program, so ask each facility about their policies.
- Medicare: Medicare does not pay for long-term residential memory care or room and board. It may cover certain short-term medical expenses or skilled nursing after a hospital stay, but not ongoing memory care.
- Veterans Benefits: Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for the VA Aid & Attendance benefit to help cover memory care costs if eligibility criteria are met.
- Life Insurance or Reverse Mortgage: Some families convert a life insurance policy or use a reverse mortgage (for homeowners) to access funds for care.
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI): SSI provides some financial assistance for basic living expenses but does not fully cover the cost of memory care.
Tips:
- Not all California memory care facilities accept Medi-Cal or participate in the ALW, so always ask about payment options before making a decision.
- Some communities may offer payment plans or sliding-scale fees.
- Consulting a financial planner or elder law attorney can be very helpful for complex situations.

How can mindfulness help caregivers find balance, support, and renewed hope in their caregiving journey?
As stated in Goodreads: “Many caregivers share that they often feel alone, isolated, and unappreciated. Mindfulness can offer renewed hope for finding support and value for your role as a caregiver…It is an approach that everyone can use. It can help slow you down some so you can make the best possible decisions for your care recipient. It also helps bring more balance and ease while navigating the caregiving journey.”
Nancy L. Kriseman Nancy L. Kriseman, LCSW, is a geriatric social worker in private practice. She provides counseling, consultation, and educational seminars to family caregivers, and training and presentations to organizations. She has over thirty years of experience working in eldercare, focusing much of her professional career working with family caregivers.
