How families pay for memory care in New Mexico
Most families in New Mexico begin by paying privately for assisted living, memory care or independent living, often drawing on savings, retirement income and, when needed, proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, where a policy is already in place, can help cover a portion of these costs as well. It is worth remembering that Medicare does not pay for assisted living or memory care; it only covers a short stay in skilled nursing care following a qualifying hospital stay, so it should not be counted on as an ongoing source of payment.
