Median costs for home health care versus New Mexico and the middle state nationally. The 25th and 75th percentile rows are the modeled range explained on the methodology page; in the national column they are percentiles across state medians. Figures are estimates, not quotes. Home health is priced here at the survey's merged rate for non-medical home caregivers, because the survey no longer prices skilled nursing or therapy visits separately. Skilled visits are usually billed per visit.

Methodology
Why is this number different on other websites? Many directories quote a community's "starting at" rent, before care fees. This figure is the state survey median. It is an estimate to plan against, not a quote; ask each provider for its own number in writing. Our methodology →

What home care really costs by the hour

Hourly math uses the survey standard of 44 hrs/week when a sourced in-home monthly median is published for this city. We do not invent an hourly rate before that figure exists.

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.
