Costs of nursing homes in the Knoxville area

According to A Place for Mom’s proprietary data, the average monthly cost of assisted living within our network of partners in Knoxville is $4,481, including care and fees. For memory care, the average is $4,495.^[01] With this payment, residents receive holistic care (diabetes, incontinence, memory, and rehabilitative care, to name a few examples) and medication management. Seniors also receive amenities such as wheelchair accessible rooms, chef-prepared meals, and access to common areas where they can socialize.

For a skilled nursing home, the average monthly cost is $3,823.^[02] It’s important to note that this price does not include any additional fees and represents only a baseline.

How people pay for a nursing home in Knoxville

It’s all about smart planning when it comes to paying for a nursing home, assisted living or memory care. The good news is that there are a variety of ways to cover the costs, both through private and public means.

One option is private payment. Alternatively, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) benefits are available to veterans and their spouses, while Medicaid and Medicare can provide public aid. By taking advantage of these resources, you can create a financial plan that ensures you or your loved one can receive the care you need.

Private pay methods in Knoxville

Private pay methods offer individuals the flexibility to finance their senior care communities using their own resources. This includes income sources such as a personal bank account, stock portfolio, 401(k), or individual retirement account.

With private pay methods, individuals can take control of their senior living expenses, even if they don’t qualify for government programs. Below are additional funding options.

VA benefits for nursing homes in Knoxville

If you are a veteran seeking care in assisted living or memory care within the A Place for Mom network, you should apply for the VA’s Aid and Attendance program. This program can increase funding to your pension and help pay for your stay.

However, the application and acceptance process may be prolonged. To ease the process, we recommend that you connect with a local veteran services officer and veteran service organizations — such as the VFW or American Legion — before applying. These experts, recognized by the VA, will help you with the application and appeals process. The VA has a regional office in Knoxville that provides assistance with benefits applications, too.

Knoxville Medicaid for nursing homes

TennCare is Tennessee’s Medicaid program for people with low incomes that’s operated by the Tennessee Department of Human Services. While it does cover room and board in nursing homes, TennCare won’t pay for room and board in assisted living or memory care facilities. However, TennCare CHOICES for Long-Term Care, which is a Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver program, will help cover medical needs for seniors in assisted living or memory care facilities. Both medical and financial need is considered.

You can apply online through TennCare Connect. You can also apply by phone by calling 855-258-0701 or you can ask for a paper application to be mailed to you.

Applying for TennCare can be a lengthy process. The East Tennessee Agency on Aging and Disability can help guide you. The long-term care ombudsman and advocates at the Office on Aging are also good resources if you have questions or need help.

Medicare nursing home coverage in Knoxville

For people 65 and older, Medicare is their primary health insurance. However, that doesn’t mean it fully funds a nursing home, assisted living, or memory care stay. Custodial costs, essentially room and board, are not covered by Medicare. What is covered, however, are medically necessary things like physical therapy, medical equipment, and some medications.

The exception here is that Medicare will cover a nursing home stay in a Medicare-certified facility for a short period of time if certain conditions are met. This is different from long-term care.

Since there are some costs associated with some parts of Medicare, the four Medicare Savings Programs in Tennessee offer additional help in paying for premiums or copayments for seniors who meet low income requirements. CoverRx is a prescription drug program for people under the age of 65 without pharmacy coverage. It offers over 200 generic medications and certain name-brand drugs, insulin, mental health medications, and naloxone products at affordable copays. The Office of Aging’s Affordable Medicine Options for Seniors (AMOS) program helps seniors connect with the right programs that can help reduce the cost of prescription medications.

The Tennessee Program for All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) offers medical and social care to vulnerable elderly individuals who are eligible for Medicare and Medicaid. A team of health experts coordinates their care, and these services can be received in assisted living or memory care facilities.

You can sign up for Medicare through the Social Security Administration. There are also organizations, such as the Office on Aging, that will help you through the Tennessee State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP), which provides advocacy and benefits counseling. For additional assistance, the Office on Aging has a directory of resources available. You can also contact your local ombudsman for information about long-term care.

Understand Tennessee laws and regulations for nursing homes

In Tennessee, all nursing homes must be licensed and regulated by the Board for Licensing Health Care Facilities. This Department of Health regulatory body is responsible for overseeing a range of health care facilities, including hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, memory care, and more.

The regulations for assisted living and memory care (which fall under assisted-care living facilities) cover a broad scope from facility requirements to staffing to care expectations. Some of the regulations include:

Rooms must be limited to no more than two adults
Someone must be awake at all times, but there no specific staff to resident ratios
A care plan must be completed in the first five days to outline the services and help a resident will need
Residents in assisted living are allowed to handle their own prescription medications, but staff can help them open bottles or read labels
Comfortable areas for family visits and group activities must be available
Three meals per day must be provided along with a snack if 14 hours pass between dinner and breakfast the next day
Provide laundry services for linens and clothing
Specialized training around caring for people with dementia and Alzheimer’s is required for staff in memory care units
Uphold the rights of the residents

Nursing homes in Knoxville are required to meet specific staff requirements established by the state of Tennessee. The staffing ratios vary depending on the type of nursing home and the services it provides. Skilled nursing facilities, for instance, must have a registered nurse (RN) on duty at all times, as well as licensed practical nurses (LPNs) and certified nursing assistants (CNAs) in sufficient numbers to meet the needs of the residents.

Long-term care facilities that provide intermediate care must have an RN on duty for at least eight hours each day, as well as LPNs and CNAs in sufficient numbers. Nursing homes that provide custodial care must have an RN or LPN on duty at least once per week, and CNAs in sufficient numbers to meet the needs of the residents. Other regulations include:

Yearly training for staff in assisting with activities of daily living, patient behavior, safety protocols, and Alzheimer’s disease.
Diagnoses must be recorded upon patient admission and a care plan must be established after an initial assessment
People cannot be admitted if they might harm themselves or others
The nursing home must provide specialized services, such as physical or occupational therapy or speech therapy
Medication must be stored under lock and key and only administered by certain qualified staff members
CDC infection control requirements must be met
Group activities must be provided daily
A dietician must be in charge of the meal planning, which must include three daily meals and a snack

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are responsible for monitoring nursing homes to ensure they comply with federal regulations as well.

Nursing homes, assisted living, and memory care facilities must also undergo a pre-licensure inspection. Additionally, the Department of Health conducts unannounced inspections of every facility within 15 months of their last inspection and as needed. Inspection reports and licenses can be accessed by the public on the Tennessee Department of Health’s website. Both assisted living and memory care facilities are classified in Tennessee as assisted-care living facilities.

Health care for seniors in Knoxville

Seniors in assisted living or memory care often require comprehensive care for both short- and long-term periods. However, some facilities may not have all the necessary resources available on-site. The following is a list of healthcare facilities in Knoxville that can provide a full range of services for your loved ones’ needs:

Parkwest Medical Center

Parkwest Medical Center is a highly rated general medical and surgical facility, known for its exceptional performance in 11 adult procedures and conditions.

University of Tennessee Medical Center

The University of Tennessee Medical Center has been recognized as a facility of excellence, having earned a high-performing rating for 11 adult procedures and conditions. This teaching hospital offers a wide range of medical services but is currently unranked in the area of geriatrics.

Transportation for seniors in Knoxville

Seniors in assisted living or memory care typically use the facility-provided transportation. Some seniors or their family and friends also might want to use the Knoxville Area Transit (KAT) to visit or take special trip out. KAT operates over 20 bus lines on fixed routes and also offers a paratransit service called LIFT for those who can’t use regular buses. The service provides door-to-door transportation by reservation only, and passengers must be certified by KAT to use it. Additionally, KAT offers a transportation counseling service to help seniors choose the best local transportation options.

For seniors who need more choices, Knox County CAC Transit provides a wheelchair-accessible door-to-door service for those who can’t use KAT or LIFT, while Volunteer Assisted Transportation through CAC offers eligible seniors transportation in program vehicles with volunteer drivers. TennCare members can get non-emergency medical transportation with 72-hour advance notice of their appointment time, while MyRide Tennessee is a sustainable, senior-friendly volunteer transportation service that uses personal vehicles to carry older Tennesseans to a range of destinations, including medical appointments and grocery stores.

Culture and dining

Culture and dining are standout features of Knoxville. While plenty of good food is provided in a resident’s facilities, dining out can be a nice treat. Knoxville’s dining scene is equally exciting, with everything from upscale restaurants and craft breweries to pet-friendly pizzerias and themed bistros. The Five Thirty Lounge and Nick & J’s Cafe are two notable favorites among locals and visitors. For music, the well-regarded Knoxville Symphony Orchestra offers monthly concerts, choirs, concertos, and more.
