What Medicaid pays nursing homes

New York 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.

Median facility daily rate

$273.87per day

That works out to about $8,326 a month at 30.4 days. The monthly figure is our arithmetic, not a number the state published.

Median we calculated from the state's own facility rate file. Period: January 1, 2025. Calculated across 591 facilities in the state's rate file.

Nearby alternatives

Other licensed providers in Buffalo, with their own public records.

A comparison puts both public records in one view and marks any measure the two are not held to alike, so a blank never reads as a bad score.
