ALFA Aims to Provide Relief to Seniors
Date:3/13/2008
ed residents for more than two years.
Assisted living services cost about one half the amount of nursing homes. Medicaid saves between 50 percent to 66 percent for each resident cared for in an assisted living community instead of a nursing home. More than 40 states have sought Medicaid waivers for assisted living for their residents who qualify and choose assisted living.
The Assisted Living Federation of America (ALFA, http://www.alfa.org) represents professionally managed assisted living communities for seniors. ALFA advocates choice for seniors, quality of care, and accessibility and portability of long term care for all Americans.
