How families pay for memory care in Tennessee
Most families in Tennessee cover the cost of assisted living, memory care and independent living out of pocket, at least at first. This usually means drawing on savings, retirement income and pensions, along with proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, when a family member holds a policy, can also be applied toward these costs, though the amount and conditions of coverage vary by policy. It's worth reviewing any policy closely before assuming what it will pay for, since some cover only certain levels of care or require a waiting period before benefits begin.
