What will it cost to achieve the level of individualized care that is desired?
A Mental Health Care professional and an Elizabeth City C.P.A. have prepared an operational budget. Benjamin House will work with area providers to access a full range of government programs and insurance payments for its clients’ since those programs (Medicaid, Medicare) will to some extent determine ability to pay. Should every resident qualify for every program, residence costs can be met without private funding. Over time, supplemental private funding in the form of endowments, bequests and grants will ensure the long-term continuity of care, and a financial cushion of resources. The complete Business Plan of Benjamin House is available for study.
