Since assisted living facilities offer both housing and personal care services, families and seniors typically finance their expenses through a combination of private means (e.g., personal savings and investments) and public sources (e.g., Medicaid or VA benefits). This section provides guidance regarding private pay, housing assistance, VA benefits, and Medicare/Medicaid resources for seniors.
Seniors can pay for assisted living using a variety of personal income sources. These sources might include pensions, savings accounts, Social Security benefits, or investment returns. Assisted living costs can also be covered by the following options:
To pay for assisted living, Kansas City veterans who qualify for VA Pension or disability benefits can often use those funds to help.
The VA Aid and Attendance benefit through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs is intended to assist veterans with a disability or individuals who require long-term care in assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care facilities. To qualify, veterans must meet one of the following criteria:
- You need another person to help you perform activities of daily living
- You have to stay in bed — or spend a large portion of the day in bed — because of illness
- You are a patient in a nursing home due to the loss of mental or physical abilities related to a disability
- Your eyesight is limited
If you are looking for additional guidance on navigating veteran benefits, there are veteran service officers in every county who can help. It’s worth connecting with these experts to see if there are benefits you may qualify for and aren’t aware of. In Missouri, there are two Jackson County veterans service officers with the Missouri Veterans Commission ready to educate you about benefits and help with claims filing.
Many Veterans Service Organizations (VSOs) have helpful representatives, too. We provide a helpful list below.
Representatives from the Kansas Commission on Veterans Affairs counsel Kansas veterans about benefits and eligibility. They move around and can meet you in their field office, as well as at various Veterans Service Organizations.
Approximately 24,129 veterans live in Kansas City, according to the U.S. Census Bureau
About 19% of those veterans are over the age of 75, according to the U.S. Census Bureau

Medicaid is a public insurance program that provides health insurance to low-income individuals. Each state runs its own Medicaid program within the regulations set by the federal government. In this section, we will discuss both Missouri and Kansas Medicaid programs.
MO HealthNet is the resource used in the state of Missouri to provide Medicaid coverage for those living in Kansas City. Those eligible must be under a certain income amount. To apply for Medicaid in Missouri, you can apply online, via phone, mail, or fax. When you apply for MO HealthNet, the Family Support Division of Missouri will also check to see if you qualify for a variety of other benefit programs, no additional application necessary.
Missouri Medicaid covers some costs for behavioral health, dental, hospital, pharmacy, and more. For a comprehensive coverage list, click here.
In Kansas, KanCare is the name of the state’s Medicaid program. In order to apply, you must fill out a self-assessment on its website to determine whether or not you are eligible. The assessment will ask you if you are 65 years or older, if you have a disability, as well as your total income. If eligible, you can apply on their website.
Kansas Medicaid covers prescription drugs, mental health services and medical coverage, inpatient hospital, and hearing. Dental and eye-wear coverage is also included for most people.
The Kansas City Department for Aging and Disability Services also offers a Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) through the Kansas Department of Aging and Disability Services. The PACE program provides comprehensive medically necessary care to seniors who are enrolled in Medicaid, Medicare or both.
Both Missouri and Kansas have long-term care ombudsman programs that are designed to help seniors in long-term care facilities maintain their quality of life. They act as representatives to ensure the rights of seniors are preserved and protected. In Missouri, the ombudsman program is facilitated by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services. In Kansas, the program is facilitated by KanCare.

Medicare is a federal program that covers healthcare costs for seniors over 65 who have paid Medicare taxes or are married to someone who paid Medicare taxes. Although Medicare won’t cover any of the costs associated with assisted living in Missouri or Kansas, it can help cover medically necessary services like prescription medications, rehabilitation, hospital stays, or medical equipment. To sign up for Medicare in both Missouri and Kansas, seniors will need to contact their local Social Security Administration office.
Medicare Advantage plans in Missouri are the majority of Medicare coverage chosen by Kansas City Medicare beneficiaries and there are more than 40 Medicare Advantage options to choose from in Kansas City.[05]
Some Missouri seniors also opt for a Medicare Supplement in addition to their Medicare plan for more comprehensive coverage. They might use Medicare Medigap to help pay for copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles. If you have a low income, Medicare Savings Programs can help assist with premiums and copays. MORx, Missouri’s Pharmacy Assistance Program, can help with medication expenses. There are three Medicare Savings Programs in Kansas to help people who qualify. The Kansas Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) also helps Kansas seniors connect with health and social services.
If you are looking for Medicare guidance, both Missouri and Kansas have insurance assistance programs In Missouri, there is CLAIM, which is a State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) and Kansas has the Senior Health Insurance Counseling for Kansas program (SHICK). These programs essentially do the same thing and help seniors navigate the complexities of Medicare. Employees at both programs are trained to walk seniors and their families through all the Medicare plan options available to them in their state and assist them in making the best choice possible.
Each state also has an ombudsman’s office with representatives specifically trained to help people applying for Medicare find the best plan for them with all the resources available. Ombudsmen do not regulate long-term care facilities, but they do work with residents, their families, providers and other agencies to resolve problems and concerns.
If you are looking for additional support, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid services have a regional branch in Kansas City that can answer your questions.
