How families pay for senior living in Missouri

Most families in Missouri pay for assisted living, memory care and independent living out of pocket, at least at first. That often means monthly income combined with savings, and many households also draw on the proceeds from selling a home to help cover costs. Long-term care insurance, when a parent or spouse purchased a policy years ago, can offset some of the monthly fee as well, though it's worth reviewing the policy's terms closely since coverage for assisted living versus memory care can differ. Veterans and surviving spouses may also qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that can be applied toward the cost of care, and it's worth asking a veterans service officer whether a particular situation meets the requirements.
