How much does assisted living cost in Nebraska and how do people pay for it?
In Nebraska, monthly fees for assisted living vary, depending upon facility design and services, and resident needs. Be sure to ask the facility what is included in the basic monthly fee. There may be a charge for additional services not covered in the monthly fee. If this information is not readily provided, you will need to ask the facility which of their services they charge extra for, beyond the basic fee. There may also be initial costs, such as a deposit or other one-time fees. Remember these fees and costs are not fixed. It is possible for costs to increase over time, based on changes in the cost-of-living and on changes in the resident’s care needs. In addition, as with any business, costs could just go up. The state of Nebraska does not regulate the cost of assisted living. Basic monthly fees, additional service fees, and one-time fees are all determined by each facility.
