How to pay for memory care in Sacramento

Many families in Sacramento pay for memory care by combining personal funds with financial assistance programs. Common options include personal savings, proceeds from a home sale, long-term care insurance, veterans benefits, and California Medicaid programs that may help cover certain care-related services.

Private pay options

Personal income and assets that families often use to pay for memory care include:

Social Security benefits
Pension payments
Retirement account distributions (e.g., 401k, 401a and 403b, Roth, and others)
Health saving accounts
Long-term care insurance
Certain kinds of life insurance policies
Proceeds from selling a home or other real estate
Proceeds from a reverse mortgage

In some cases, family members decide to share expenses to ensure their loved one receives quality care.

Veterans Pension
Aid and Attendance
Disability Compensation
Survivors Pension (for eligible surviving spouses)
Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC)

Because VA applications require detailed documentation, even small errors can cause delays.
