What types of benefits will Medicaid provide?
That depends on the state. In all states Medicaid (called Medi-Cal in California) provides benefits for nursing home care, which typically includes room and board, care, prescriptions, supplies and medical coverage. In most states, other types of care, often referred to as ‘community based care’, such as assisted living facilities, residential care facilities, adult foster care facilities, home care and adult day care, may also be covered. Some states cover all these types of care, some cover one or two, and others only nursing home Medicaid. You may want to verify the specific types of care provided in your state.
