How people pay for assisted living in Memphis

There are several ways to pay for assisted living in the Memphis area through private pay and public means. While some families choose one payment method, most people use a mix of private and public funding methods to pay for assisted living. In this section, you will learn about the kinds of resources used to pay for costs related to assisted living, including private pay, VA benefits, Medicare, and Medicaid.

Private pay methods in Memphis

Private pay is often combined with other income sources to finance a move to assisted living. This may include Social Security benefits, pensions, and investment returns.

Seniors may also be able to use long-term care insurance to pay for assisted living. Policies vary, so it’s recommended that you consult with your loved one’s insurance provider to determine what assisted living costs are covered.

Additional options that seniors often use to cover their assisted living costs can include the following:

VA benefits for assisted living in Memphis

12430

Number of veterans, 65+, who live in Memphis

About 47% of Memphis seniors, 65+, earn retirement income.

Senior veterans or their surviving spouses may be eligible to receive pensions or disability benefits from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to help with their costs of living and long-term care services.

The VA Aid and Attendance benefit is a common benefit for disabled veterans. It’s added to a veteran’s existing monthly VA Pension payments and can be used to help a veteran improve their quality of life, including paying rent at an assisted living community.

A veteran must have a service-related disability to be eligible. This can include many conditions and circumstances, and the requirements can change depending on individual military histories, so it’s useful to work with a veteran service officer for benefit advising to see if your condition qualifies.

The benefit application process is also complicated and time consuming, so it’s highly recommended that you utilize the supportive services of local veterans service organizations (VSO) to help expedite this process. The VSOs that serve Memphis veterans conveniently operate out of the Shelby County Administration Building. From this one location, senior veterans can be connected to local, regional, and national services offered by VSOs, like the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) and American Legion.

Memphis Medicaid for assisted living

Medicaid is a public health insurance program jointly funded by the federal government and states. Individual states create and administer their own programs within federal guidelines. It can’t be used to pay rent at an assisted living community, but it can be used to cover certain long-term medical and personal care services provided in an assisted living community.

Tennessee’s Medicaid program is called TennCare. It’s a managed care program that provides services such as basic health care, inpatient care in a hospital, and dental care. Seniors 65+ who meet income and asset qualifications are eligible to enroll.^[03]

The TennCare CHOICES program is for seniors 65+ and individuals with disabilities who require long-term care. The program can provide supportive services for seniors who live in a nursing home or in a community-based alternative to a nursing home which may include the following environments:

Assisted living facilities (licensed in Tennessee as Assisted Care Living Facilities ACLF) are residential communities that provide help with personal care needs, homemaker services, and medication management. Residents must pay for room and board.
Community living supports are shared homes where no more than four residents live. Support is dependent on the resident’s level of need and can include hands-on assistance, supervision, transportation, and other supports.
Family model community living supports are shared homes where no more than four residents live with a trained host family. The level of support depends on resident’s needs and can include hands-on assistance, supervision, and transportation.

Critical adult care homes are shared homes of no more than four people who have special health and long-term care needs. A health care professional lives on the premises to provide 24 hour care. This option is only available to people who are ventilator dependent or have a traumatic brain injury. Residents must pay room and board.^[04]

As of 2023, to qualify for the CHOICES program, a senior must meet the following income and functional requirements:

Income can’t exceed $2,742 per month.
The total value of assets can’t be more than $2,000, excluding the value of the home where a senior lives.
Possessions can’t be given away or sold for less than what they are worth for five years prior to applying for program.
A senior requires a nursing home level of care or must be at risk of needing a nursing home level of care unless they receive home care.^[05]

For any questions about Medicaid eligibility, you can contact Tennessee’s Commission on Aging and Disability, long-term care ombudsman, and the Aging Commission of the Mid-South using the contact information provided below. These resources can guide seniors and their families through the Medicaid eligibility and application processes and to the proper Medicaid programs for their needs.

Medicare assisted living coverage in Memphis

Because assisted living housing is considered custodial care, Medicare doesn’t cover the costs of room and board. However, people over the age of 65 can use it to cover their daily medical expenses.

There are three parts to Medicare: A, B, and D. All cover different costs related to health care and will determine what a senior is eligible for. Here’s a summary of the three parts:

Part A is hospital insurance and will cover some home health care, skilled nursing facility care, and inpatient hospital care.
Part B is medical insurance covering health care providers and outpatient care services, otherwise known as medically necessary services and preventative services.
Part D is drug coverage and covers the cost of prescriptions, vaccines, and other shots.

For people over the age of 65 with Part A and Part B, coverage can include the following:

Occupational and speech therapy
Physical therapy
Part-time in-home care
Occasional skilled nursing
Medical social services
Injectable osteoporosis drugs

For financial counseling and support with Medicare, Tennessee’s State Health Insurance Program (TN SHIP) can help, while the Medicare Savings Program can help with financial assistance for medical premiums, deductibles, prescription drugs, and coinsurance.

Some seniors may also qualify for specific programs aimed to support long-term care for seniors. One example is the Program for All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) which provides access to certain in-home care benefits which allow them to continue living in their community as long as possible.^[06]

To safeguard people with grievances, complaints, or appeals, the Tennessee long-term care ombudsman and the other listed resources are available for support and advocacy. There are three Social Security Administration offices in Memphis where you can go to apply for Medicare.

Understand Tennessee laws and regulations for assisted living facilities

In Tennessee, assisted living communities must be licensed by the Office of Health Care Facilities within the Tennessee Department of Health. Tennessee licenses assisted living facilities as either assisted-care living facilities (ACLF) or residential homes for the aged. Residential homes for the aged are smaller communities that provide room and board and personal care services. Assisted-care living facilities take it a step further by having the ability to provide medical services, such as part-time intermittent nursing care and medication administration by licensed medical professionals.^[07]

To be licensed, facilities must meet several requirements, including passing regular inspections, hiring an administrator who is certified by the Board for Licensing Health Care Facilities and maintaining staff whose qualifications meet standards determined by the Department of Health. Licenses are reviewed annually.

Facilities are regularly inspected by the Department of Health to ensure regulatory requirements are maintained and residents receive high-quality care. Inspections cover things like the following:^[08]

Medication management
Resident rights
Staffing protocols
Safety protocols
Cleanliness
Infection control

Families or residents can access health care facilities’ licensing information and inspection reports by searching for prospective communities on the Tennessee Department of Health website. The report provides information about current licensure status, expiration date, most recent inspection date, and the date of the original license. If a community has been cited for a violation, that information will be highlighted in red with the number of disciplinary actions, a description of the violation, and the actions that were taken.

Why do licensure and inspection reports matter to families?

State regulations — and a community’s track record with inspections and licensing — offer important insights into safety and quality of care in senior living communities.

Download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports to learn what to look for in inspection reports and what questions to ask when touring communities. This resource explains how to use state licensure and inspection information to evaluate a community’s compliance, care standards, and responsiveness to issues.

COVID-19 regulations for Memphis assisted living facilities

Tennessee doesn’t follow any state mandates around COVID-19. However, health care facilities like assisted living communities are recommended to follow the guidelines set forth by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS), including:

Vaccinations. Staff and residents are encouraged to get fully vaccinated and boosted.

An illustration of a protective breathing mask

Masking. Staff are encouraged to wear a well-fitted face mask. When transmission rates are high, everyone is encouraged to wear a mask. Masks are also recommended among residents and visitors in communal spaces.

Facility cleanliness. Staff must clean visiting areas after each visit. And high-touch areas should be regularly disinfected.

Staff safety. When necessary, staff should use personal protective equipment (PPE).

An illustration of two people with a double-sided arrow beneath them indicating distance

Social distancing. During peak visiting hours or during parties, social distancing is encouraged.

What to expect from assisted living in Memphis

Assisted living in Memphis combines the need for supportive care with the desire for an active, engaging lifestyle. Communities offer a variety of social and recreational activities that encourage social interaction and strengthen bonds between residents. Book clubs, cooking classes, movie nights, and group outings are just some examples of activities hosted at these communities that enrich the environment and promote mental and emotional well-being.

Aging in Memphis can be an exciting and rewarding experience. Whether you’re engaging with the vibrant local culture, enjoying one of the many activities, or experiencing the camaraderie and care in an assisted living community, Memphis provides a stimulating environment wherever you are.

Levels of care

People choose assisted living because it can provide additional support and care to the senior living experience. However, some assisted living communities combine additional levels of care and living options. Three partner communities of the 13 in the Memphis area are standalone facilities, while the remaining communities also offer memory care and independent living options.^[01]

The benefit of having additional levels of care available at one facility allows residents to age in place while accessing care as their needs change. For example, a senior may move to an independent living apartment in a community that offers assisted living and memory care. If their needs change as they age, they can transition to higher levels of care without having to move to a completely new community. They’re able to remain in a familiar place surrounded by neighbors and friends.

Assisted living communities in Memphis help residents stay active and healthy

While all assisted living facilities are different, certain features, services, and amenities are common in Memphis assisted living communities.

Transportation for seniors in Memphis

Nine of our partner communities offer transportation services for residents. Because of the geographic spread of Memphis, most people rely on a car to get around. However, the East Midtown, Idlewood-East End Historic, and Barry F. Homes are neighborhoods where people can easily walk and navigate via bicycle.

Another option is Memphis’ public transportation system, operated by the Memphis Area Transport Authority (MATA), which runs 26 fixed-route and express buses. MATA also operates a trolley service downtown which, while not extensive in coverage, is a fun way to see the city.

In addition to MATA’s bus and trolley service, several public transportation options and services are available to seniors or people who cannot use the fixed-route bus system due to disability.

Offered through MATA, MATAplus is a door-to-door service for those unable to use MATA buses independently. This service extends three-quarters of a mile beyond the fixed route system and operates within the same service hours. Once an application to ride has been approved, reservations can be made via phone.
For a service similar to a taxi or rideshare, iTN Memphis (aka the Independent Transportation Network) is available throughout Tennessee. This 24/7 service is open to anyone over the age of 60 who lives within the I-240 loop.
On its way to Memphis is the Shelby County Senior Volunteer Transportation Network, which pairs vetted volunteer drivers with seniors looking for accessible rides.

Walk Score rates how walkable and easy a city is to get around on a scale of 0-100, based on public transportation, public density, and the availability of walk and bike lanes. Due to its sprawl and lack of consistent walk lanes, Memphis’ walk score is 35.^[11] Beyond the downtown area, a car is often needed in Memphis.

Senior activities in Memphis

Steeped in rock ‘n’ roll history, Memphis is alive with activities that will have your heart singing. Clinging to the banks of the mighty Mississippi, this river town also boasts a variety of scenic areas, parks, and activities that make Memphis a great place to live no matter how you get around.

A number of assisted living communities plan accessible outings around arts, history, and culture at one of the many museums in Memphis. The Brooks Museum of Art is one that hosts a wide range of art exhibits, including painting, sculpture, and photography. The Pink Palace (also known as the Museum of Science and History) has a rotation of compelling exhibits, films, and even a planetarium. Another popular attraction is the National Civil Rights Museum which explores the history of the civil rights movement in the United States.

The Mississippi breathes life into Memphis, providing a stage for several events and activities. Memphis River Parks hosts outdoor concerts, walking tours, and different kinds of festivals. The river parks also provides wide, paved paths for strolling, grassy areas for picnicking and several areas to just relax while watching the river boats float past.

Just across the river in West Memphis, Arkansas, the Southland Casino Hotel provides a variety of accessible entertainment. Try your luck among the cacophony of ringing slot machines or take in a live show. Treat your favorite person to an intimate dinner or meet friends for a drink in one of the bars.

For outdoor activities visit Shelby Farms Park, where people of all abilities can access trails, restaurants, and many of the park’s lakes. The Memphis Botanic Garden is a great spot to spend the afternoon. With its wide, smooth paths that wind through the gardens, visitors can engage all of their senses while marveling at the incredible vegetation.

The FedExForum sits on the edge of downtown and is easy to navigate, with elevators and wide, smooth walkways. The FedExForum plays host to several events throughout the year. Most notably, it’s home to the NBA’s Memphis Grizzlies basketball team. Games are a great way to spend time with family or friends. And senior discounts are offered for many games.

You can’t spend time in Memphis without taking a step through the city’s musical history. Visiting Elvis Presley’s famed home in Graceland is a great way to spend the day for seniors and loved ones. Most of the 120-acre estate is wheelchair accessible and features tours of Elvis’ home, plane, and vintage cars. There’s also an on-site museum dedicated to music memorabilia.

Beale Street, is another attraction for music lovers or those interested in Memphis’ storied culinary scene. The sidewalks in some places can be narrow but all have ramps at street crossings. And each evening, portions of the street are closed to auto traffic, allowing the night to come alive with a variety of performers.
