How to pay for assisted living in Colorado Springs

Many families in Colorado Springs cover the cost of assisted living through a combination of personal resources, long-term care insurance, veterans benefits, and Colorado Medicaid programs. By combining these private and public resources, families can make quality care more affordable while ensuring their loved one receives the support and stability they need.

Private pay options

Families often use a combination of personal income and assets to help pay assisted living expenses. Common sources include:

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

VA benefits

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides several programs that can help eligible veterans and surviving spouses pay for assisted living. These benefits can significantly reduce monthly care costs and offer meaningful financial support for long-term care needs. Common programs include:

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

Because VA benefits require detailed applications and strict eligibility documentation, navigating the process carefully is important. Working with a VA-accredited benefits counselor can simplify the experience, help avoid delays, and ensure your loved one receives the full support they’ve earned through their service.

Medicaid

Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that helps eligible seniors pay for certain health and long-term care services. Health First Colorado, the state’s Medicaid program, covers personal care services for eligible residents who live in assisted living communities through its Long-Term Services and Supports Programs, which include.^[04].

The Community First Choice program^[05]
The Elderly, Blind, and Disabled waiver^[06]

Community First Choice is an entitlement program, meaning that services provided to any eligible resident will be covered. The Aged and Disabled waiver, however, is not an entitlement, so funding is limited and your loved one may be placed on a wait list.

Services covered by these programs may include:

Home health care
Physical or speech therapy
Meal or food delivery
Help with activities of daily living
Housekeeping

Eligibility for Health First Colorado benefits that cover these services, including specific programs and waivers, is based on income and asset limits, as well as medical need.

Medicaid resources in Colorado Springs, CO

To apply for Health First Colorado, elderly residents in Colorado Springs can:

Visit the Colorado PEAK website
Call the Colorado Department of Human Services at 800-221-3943

Medicare

Medicare provides health insurance for adults 65 and older, as well as for younger individuals with certain qualifying medical conditions.^[07] Although Medicare won’t cover the monthly rent for assisted living, it can help lower overall medical costs by paying for prescriptions, durable medical equipment, and other approved health services your loved one may need.
