Residents or their families generally pay for the cost of care from their own financial resources.  Depending on the nature of an individual's health insurance program or long-term care insurance policy, costs may be reimbursed.  Government payments for Assisted Living is limited.  Some state and local governments offer subsidies for rent or servies for low income seniors.   Others may provide subsidies in the form of an additional payment for those who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Medicaid.  Some states also utilize Medicaid waiver programs to help pay for Assisted Living services.  The Veterans Administration also offers an "Aid and Attendance" benefit that can be beneficial when Assisted Living is necessary.
