Nursing Homes
Median · OR$16,760/moOregon publishes what its Medicaid program pays a nursing facility per resident per day. It is not a private-pay price and it is not what a family is billed. It is useful because it shows what the state considers the cost of a day of nursing-home care.
Basic bundled daily rate

That works out to about $17,274 a month at 30.4 days. The monthly figure is our arithmetic, not a number the state published.
