Methodology
Why is this number different on other websites? Most sites average "starting at" prices. Base rent, before care fees. We estimate the full monthly cost families actually pay. Budget from the all-in number. Our methodology →

Ways families typically pay

  • Private pay (savings, income, home equity)
  • Long-term care insurance
  • VA Aid & Attendance for eligible veterans and surviving spouses
  • Medicaid home- and community-based services (HCBS) waivers, where eligible. Rules vary by state

Medicare generally does not cover long-term custodial care. State-specific Medicaid waiver guides are coming soon.

Texas licensing & regulation

Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) licenses and inspects assisted living communities in Texas. Before you sign anything, look up the community's license status and past complaints on the state's own site, not a marketing page.

Home and Community Support Services Agencies (in-home care) and Day Activity and Health Services (adult day) are also licensed by HHSC, searchable in the same TULIP provider-search tool.
