Assisted Living in New Hampshire
New Hampshire Assisted Living Facilities
Seniors looking for care in New Hampshire have many options. Assisted living facilities in New Hampshire are for seniors who require assistance with daily activities but do not need around the clock care and attention. In New Hampshire, assisted living provides support for adults who qualify for care in residential settings. Residential care facilities are community-based settings that allow for maximum individual independence while tailoring services to individual needs.
Average Cost of Assisted Living in New Hampshire 
The average monthly cost of residence at an assisted living facility in New Hampshire was $7,021, according to a Genworth survey in 2019. Each year, Genworth surveys senior living care providers to estimate the average cost of care in over 440 regions within the United States, including New Hampshire. Costs associated with assisted living care grew at a rate between 4-5% last year. The average cost of assisted living care in New Hampshire will vary based on the residence and location. Care close to the Manchester area tends to be higher than stays at assisted living facilities in Northern New Hampshire. When looking for senior care, be sure you know what services and care are required for you or your loved one.
Medicaid for Seniors in New Hampshire – Assisted Living Residence
In New Hampshire, nursing home care is paid for by the state Medicaid plan. Some limited personal care is also covered. In addition to New Hampshire’s Medicaid plan, it also has a Home and Community Based Services Waiver for elderly and disabled residents, in order to assist them in remaining in the community rather than require nursing home placement.
To determine eligibility for Medicaid in New Hampshire, there are both income and asset restrictions. As of 2018, an individual’s income must not be greater than $1,214 a month. However, New Hampshire allows applicants to “spend down” their income, therefore, qualifying for Medicaid. For instance, after an applicant’s medical expenses are paid, if their remaining income is under $591 a month, they will qualify for services under Medicaid, as far as income is concerned. The asset limit is set at $2,500 and includes all liquid assets, such as cash, mutual funds, stocks and retirement funds. A senior’s primary home, if valued under $552,000 and he or she lives in it, is considered exempt. Make sure to consult a Medicaid planning professional for additional help.
