How people pay for assisted living in Albuquerque

Albuquerque residents can choose from several private and public assistance options to help pay for senior living. Assessing your loved one’s unique financial situation will help determine the best way to pay for life in an assisted living community. Even while using private methods to pay for care, make sure to apply for any additional benefits seniors may qualify for in your area. There may be assistance available to your loved one that can help their private pay options go further.

Private pay methods in Albuquerque

Private pay methods can include your loved one’s income sources like savings, pensions, returns on investments, and Social Security benefits. These additional private pay options may also be used:

Selling a house
Reverse mortgage

VA benefits for assisted living in Albuquerque

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) offers pensions and benefits that may help eligible Albuquerque senior veterans pay for their long-term care and senior living expenses. One such benefit is the Aid and Attendance benefit.

The VA Aid and Attendance benefit can be used to cover anything that improves the veteran’s quality of life, such as senior living expenses. The Aid and Attendance benefit may be added to a veteran’s pension to help cover the cost of rent and long-term care services in an assisted living facility. A veteran’s surviving spouse may also qualify for this benefit. In order to receive this benefit, the senior must already be receiving a VA pension and have acknowledgment from VA health care of a disability. Keep in mind that applying and receiving approval for these benefits can be a long and complicated process, so be sure to contact local veterans advocates — such as the resources included below — for assistance.

The New Mexico Department of Veterans’ Services has field offices located all around the state where residents can receive assistance from veteran service officers (VSOs). Veteran service officers are fellow veterans who are familiar with benefits offerings and can help veterans get the most out of their eligibility. VA services and benefits include but are not limited to the following:

  • Compensation and pension
  • Health care
  • Housing
  • Education and training
  • Burial and survivor support
VA benefits assistance

For assistance with finding veterans benefits for New Mexico residents, you can contact your local Veterans office or check out the New Mexico Department of Veterans’ Services webpage. The New Mexico Judiciary Branch offers information on additional community resources for veterans, such as food and assistance, medical centers, housing assistance, rehabilitation, and more. New Mexico also has specialized departments for aiding veterans of foreign wars and for veterans with disabilities.

Albuquerque Medicaid for assisted living

Medicaid is federal- and state-funded medical insurance for those with low incomes or disabilities. New Mexico’s Medicaid program is called Centennial Care. While each state’s Medicaid program varies, all Medicaid programs must follow federal guidelines.

Through Centennial Care, Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) waivers can help seniors pay for their care services in the residence of their choice, including an assisted living apartment. You must be enrolled in a Centennial Care Managed Care Organization (MCO) and the agency providing the care services must be contracted with that MCO.

Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) waivers

Home and Community Based Services (or HCBS) waivers are designed to cover care for those in need of a Nursing Facility Level of Support (or NFLOS),[03] but choose to live at home instead of in a skilled nursing facility. Eligible seniors can use this benefit while living at home, with a loved one, or in assisted living. New Mexico’s HCBS waiver program is offered through the Centennial Care Community Benefit, or just simply Community Benefit. It can be used to cover long-term care costs in the place of residence, such as the following:

  • Medical care services
  • Adult day services
  • Personal care services, such as assistance with activities of daily living
  • Home modifications, such as support railings, wheelchair ramps, emergency call systems, etc.
  • Transition-related costs if the senior is moving from a Medicaid-approved skilled nursing facility back into their community

The HCBS waiver is not an entitlement for eligible New Mexico residents. Community Benefits will only be granted to a maximum number of eligible residents at a time. Once this number is reached, the remaining eligible residents will be placed on a waiting list. They can then receive benefits when more spots become available. With entitlement benefits, such as Nursing Home/Institutional Medicaid, eligible residents can begin receiving benefits as soon as their application has been approved.

Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE)

New Mexico residents aged 55 or older who are receiving Medicaid can also take advantage of the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly, or PACE. Through PACE, eligible seniors can have all of their care services coordinated into a comprehensive care plan. New Mexico’s PACE program is also known as InnovAge New Mexico PACE. To be eligible, seniors must require a Nursing Facility Level of Support but remain living in their current residence, whether it’s their own home, the home of a loved one, or an assisted living facility or group home.[04]

Albuquerque residents can manage their care through the New Mexico Human Services Department (NMHSD) and the New Mexico Aging and Long-Term Services Department (ALSTD). The ALSTD has several Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) where New Mexico residents can receive additional support with Medicare, Medicaid, and other services. Below you’ll find links to these resources, as well as other tools and call centers that can help you apply for and access benefits.

Medicare assisted living coverage in Albuquerque

Medicare is a federally funded program designed to extend health coverage to Americans 65 or older and individuals with qualifying disabilities. Medicare has multiple parts that cover different aspects of health care and may include the following:

  • Inpatient hospital stays or skilled nursing care
  • Doctors’ services, medical services, and medical supplies
  • Prescription medications

Medicare doesn’t cover the cost of room and board at an assisted living community; however, it will cover many of the costs associated with medical treatment, including dementia care. You can find more information on Medicare costs and coverage by visiting the federal Medicare website or by reaching out to one of your local Albuquerque Social Security Administration offices.

Qualified seniors may get help paying for Medicare deductibles and premiums through Medicare Savings Programs. You may also be able to use Medicaid to help cover your Medicare premiums through dual enrollment. Take a look at the Medicare-Medicaid Dual Enrollee State Profile – New Mexico to learn more.

COVID-19 regulations for Albuquerque assisted living facilities

Most COVID-19 restrictions in Albuquerque have been lifted. However, Albuquerque assisted living communities continue to have a few guidelines in place.

Single icon image

Testing. Assisted living communities in Albuquerque must not admit visitors who have tested positive for COVID-19 until 10 days past their positive test, provided that they have no symptoms at that time.

Masking. Visitors are encouraged to wear a face mask, especially if they are visiting a resident who has tested positive for COVID-19.

What to expect from assisted living in Albuquerque

Albuquerque is rich in culture, with wonderful food, music, and scenery. Characteristic of the southwestern U.S., Albuquerque is also a very family-focused area. Many families prefer to keep their aging loved ones in their home to be cared for by the younger generations. However, as this is not a viable option for every family, Albuquerque assisted living communities strive to be as family-forward as possible. Many assisted living facilities in and around Albuquerque have care staff and management that strive to make personal connections, not only with residents but with their loved ones.

Many of Albuquerque’s assisted living communities offer amenities like movie theaters, barber shops and beauty salons, fitness centers, and restaurant-style dining so residents can keep their usual routines and pleasures without the hassle of a commute. Many of the city’s assisted living communities also welcome pets, so residents with fur-babies can feel even more at home. Check out some more features Albuquerque assisted living communities are known for:

Residential settings

A Place for Mom partners with 10 residential care homes in Albuquerque. Unlike larger assisted living facilities, residential care homes are typically single-family homes that have been modified to accommodate a limited number of senior residents.

As micro communities, residential care homes generally offer a higher staff-to-resident ratio in a family-like setting. Residential communities’ neighborhood settings give them a cozy, often quiet atmosphere, and their small size can give residents a sense of normalcy rather than being in a larger, more populated community where they may feel overwhelmed.

Albuquerque residential care homes are kept to the same regulation standards as other assisted living facilities. Residents are offered quality meals, care services, laundry and housekeeping, and enrichment activities, but seniors may also receive more one-on-one attention due to the size of the community.

Multiple levels of care

Many of Albuquerque’s senior living communities feature multiple types of care all on one site. Out of our partnered communities offering assisted living, 74% feature multiple care types. These communities typically offer some combination of independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care, so that if a resident’s care needs ever change they can easily transition to a support level that fits them — ideal for aging in place.

Assisted living facilities within multi-tiered communities typically strive to foster as much independence for as long as possible for each resident. Multiple care types together also offer more variety among residents, often giving more opportunity for friendships and community engagement, regardless of an individual’s specific level of need.

Transportation for seniors in Albuquerque

Nearly half of our partnered assisted living communities offer complimentary transportation services. Another 33% of our partner communities offer transportation services at an additional cost.

Albuquerque’s main transit bus system, ABQ RIDE, offers monthly passes, assistance with planning your route, and a Guaranteed Ride Home system. While the neighborhoods and residential areas are walkable, the commercial areas like shopping and dining generally require vehicle access, so most residents use a car if they are able.

Seniors can take advantage of the city’s curb-to-curb van transport to medical appointments, meal sites, activities, and shopping, with wheelchair accommodations available for those who need it.
