  2. 2. Long-term care insuranceCommon

    Pays toward care costs if a policy was purchased in advance, usually years before care is needed. Policy terms (daily/monthly benefit caps, elimination periods) vary widely. Check the policy documents directly.

  3. 3. Medicaid (state-run, income- and asset-limited)Common

    Covers nursing home care in every state, and many states offer Home & Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that extend Medicaid to assisted living or in-home care. Eligibility rules and waiver availability are state-specific.

  4. 4. VA Aid & Attendance (veterans and surviving spouses)Situational

    An added benefit on top of a VA pension for eligible wartime veterans (or surviving spouses) who need help with daily activities. Requires meeting service, income, and care-need criteria.

  5. 5. MedicareNarrow eligibility

    Does not cover long-term custodial care (help with daily living). It can cover short-term skilled nursing or home health following a qualifying hospital stay, under specific conditions.

  6. Paid family caregiving (consumer-directed Medicaid)

    Some states let an eligible parent hire a family caregiver through a self-directed Medicaid option. See Can I get paid to care for my parent in Rhode Island?
