Insurance Information
Insurances Accepted - We accept PRIVATE PAY and LONG TERM CARE INSURANCE. A quote will be assessed based on your individual needs.
Long Term Care Insurances policies have different coverage based on the type of plan purchased. Please call the customer support on the back of your card to find out the specifics. Most pay a daily amount directly to the long term facility you choose and some require that you are paid the daily amount and you in turn pay the facility of your choice. We will be glad to assist you in discovering what your plan covers.
Medicare doesn't pay for daily long term care, however, Home Health, Out Patient Therapy, Durable Medical Equipment, and other Medicare Part B coverage is available.
