Most Maryland families cover assisted living, memory care and independent living with private funds first, often drawing on savings and the proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, where a family holds a policy, can also help offset monthly costs, though coverage varies by policy and it's worth reviewing the terms early. Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that can be applied toward the cost of care in these settings.
