  • Private Pay: This means paying for care out of your own savings or income.
  • Long-Term Care Insurance: This type of insurance can help pay for long-term care expenses, but it can be expensive and may not cover all costs.
  • Medicaid: This is a government-funded program that can help pay for long-term care for those with limited income and assets.
  • Veterans Benefits: Some veterans may be eligible for benefits to help pay for long-term care.

It’s important to consider these options and plan for long-term care as early as possible. It’s also recommended to consult a financial advisor or elder law attorney to understand the options available and how they can be tailored to your specific needs and circumstances.
