Costs of assisted living in the Scottsdale area

The average cost of a Scottsdale assisted living community, or assisted living center as they are referred to by the state of Arizona, is $4,958 per month.[01] This type of community accommodates over 25 residents and the cost includes all amenities and fees like rent, meals, and extras associated with care services at our partner communities.

Assisted living homes, also known as group homes, cost an average of $5,230, each month, according to A Place for Mom’s proprietary data. These communities are smaller with space for up to 10 residents and are typically located in residential neighborhoods. They offer similar care services to assisted living centers but tend to trade larger amenities for a more personalized and quiet setting.

The prices below represent average starting costs without add-on fees in the surrounding area, which could help compare general pricing across the greater area.

How people pay for assisted living in Scottsdale

Assisted living is usually paid for using a combination of payment types. Families often pay for costs like room and board using private funds from savings or retirement savings. However many of the care services provided at assisted living communities are covered by insurance such as Medicare or Medicaid or veterans benefits if a senior qualifies. In this section, we explore various payment options to help determine the financial approach that’s right for you or your loved one.

Private pay methods in Scottsdale

Private pay most commonly includes funds from personal savings accounts, returns from investment portfolios, pensions, or Social Security benefits. Many families may use the sale of a house or a reverse mortgage to pay for assisted living. Depending on your family’s resources, the following are other common ways seniors pay for assisted living:

VA benefits for assisted living in Scottsdale
13764

Number of veterans who live in Scottsdale, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

About 62% of Scottsdale veterans are 65 or older, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

Using VA benefits to pay for assisted living in Scottsdale

If your loved one served in the military, they may qualify for benefits from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). VA benefits can help them and their spouse cover the costs of assisted living in Scottsdale. Funds from a VA Pension and the Aid and Attendance benefit are two examples of programs that can help veterans pay for room and board or other services not covered by private insurance at an assisted living community.

The state of Arizona also offers helpful tax benefits for veterans. Military retirement payments aren’t taxed by the state, and Maricopa County also offers personal tax exemptions if veterans have a disability and were honorably discharged.

The VA offices nearest Scottsdale are the Northeast Phoenix VA Clinic and the Phoenix Vet Center. There are several VA office locations in the Scottsdale area, listed in the resources section below, that offer both medical and nonmedical support for veterans.

Assistance navigating veteran’s benefits in Scottsdale

Determining VA benefit eligibility and completing an application can be complicated and time-consuming. Veteran benefits counselors (known as VBCs in Arizona) are trained to help veterans and their spouses navigate VA benefits. VBCs can help find benefits for veterans even when the veteran doesn’t believe they’re eligible. They can also guide veterans through the application process. Veterans are encouraged to utilize the services of VBCs because mistakes or missed deadlines can often lead to delays or a denial of benefits.

Contact details for area VBCs are listed in the resources section below.

Local veterans services organizations for Scottsdale veterans

Veteran service organizations (VSOs) are located throughout the community and include government and non-government organizations. The Maricopa County Veterans Resources Department offers several veteran-focused services and support for families. The Arizona Department of Veterans Services office also offers services and is home to several non-government VSOs such as Veterans of Foreign War (VFW) and Disabled American Veterans (DAV).

For location and contact information of specific VSOs in Scottsdale, see the resource section below.

Scottsdale Medicaid for assisted living

Medicaid is a federal health insurance program for low-income individuals cooperatively run by the federal government and individual states. Arizona’s Medicaid program is called Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS, pronounced “access”), and seniors 65 and older can qualify if their monthly income falls below $1,255. The eligibility threshold for couples is set at $1,704 per month.[03]

Arizona Medicaid plans that help seniors pay for assisted living

The cost of assisted living can be prohibitive and while the general AHCCCS plan doesn’t cover room and board in an assisted living community, it can help seniors pay for some services and care, including the following:[04]

  • Skilled nursing care
  • Medication administration such as injections and immunizations
  • Emergency care
  • Labs and X-rays
  • Dialysis
  • Dental, vision, and hearing care
  • Hospital care

Arizona Long Term Care Systems (ALTCS, pronounced “ALL-tecs”) is designed to cover long-term care for seniors in a Medicaid-approved assisted living community. ALTCS also covers rent in a shared room, meals, and care services.

To qualify, Arizona residents must meet the following age, income, and care requirements:[05]

  • Seniors must be 65 or older.
  • An individual’s income may not exceed $2,829 per month.
  • Eligible seniors must require skilled nursing care.

For seniors who don’t meet income requirements, setting up a Special Treatment Trust with a local benefits counselor may be one way for them to qualify for assistance through the ALTCS plan. However, depending on their income, seniors who qualify in this way may be required to pay for a share of their care costs.[05]

Medicaid support in Scottsdale

Individuals in Scottsdale who need help understanding Medicaid eligibility and the application process can reach out to the Phoenix AHCCCS office. The Area Agency on Aging (AAA) in Phoenix can also provide guidance for seniors seeking information on Medicaid eligibility and programs. The Arizona Ombudsman Citizens’ Aide office offers unbiased support for seniors and their families. They can help solve disputes with state offices such as Medicaid.

Medicare assisted living coverage in Scottsdale

Medicare is a federal health insurance program for individuals 65 and older. Some individuals under 65, with a qualifying disability or illness may also be eligible for Medicare. Medicare doesn’t cover room and board at assisted living facilities, but it does cover some short-term medically necessary care services including the following:[06]

  • Skilled nursing
  • Physical, occupational, or speech therapy
  • Medical supplies

How does Medicare cover health care costs?

Regardless of where seniors live, they can enroll in and use Medicare to help offset medical costs. There are three parts of Medicare and each addresses specific health care needs.

Part A is also known as hospital insurance and will pay for skilled nursing facility care, inpatient hospital care, and home health care.

Part B or medical insurance pays for doctor’s visits, x-rays, lab work, minor procedures, and other outpatient services performed in a clinic setting.

Part Ddrug insurance, pays for prescriptions, vaccines, and the cost of other medications prescribed by a doctor.

Medicare Part C is called Medicare Advantage and is Medicare-approved health care provided by private insurance companies.

Medicare payment assistance

For some Arizona seniors, paying Medicare premiums, copayments, and deductibles can be a financial strain. The Help for Paying Medicare Costs Only program provides tiered assistance for seniors who meet income requirements. If a senior makes more than $1,255 per month but less than $1,695 they can receive help paying for Medicaid part B. Assistance is available for parts A and B if a senior’s monthly income is less than $1,255.[07]

Medicare resources for information and application assistance

Medicare enrollment is usually automatic for seniors who are already receiving Social Security benefits. The Medicare application can be found on the Social Security website for seniors who need to complete the application. The Medicare website provides additional information about eligibility and Medicare-covered services.

There are also several state and local resources for seniors needing help understanding benefits or requiring guidance with the Medicare application process.

Arizona’s State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) provides complimentary counseling on Medicare benefits, including payments, prescription drug costs, and doctor or hospital visits. The Phoenix Area Agency on Aging offers support to seniors on many aging-related issues, including help with Medicare and Medicaid. The Arizona Ombudsman Citizen’s Aide is another helpful resource for seniors and their families. Volunteers are unbiased and can help address individual concerns with Medicare and Medicaid issues.

Scottsdale laws and regulations for assisted living facilities

Scottsdale assisted living facilities are licensed by the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS). The smaller group homes with a capacity of up to 10 residents are licensed as assisted living homes. Larger facilities that accommodate over 20 residents are called assisted living centers by ADHS.

Facility licenses are renewed every 12 months pending an unannounced annual inspection. Facilities are evaluated in several categories including quality of care, caregiver background and training, and resident rights. Examples of the criteria surveyors use to evaluate facilities include the following: [09]

  • Residents must be treated with respect and dignity.
  • Facilities must have a written care plan outlining each resident’s current health and level of care.
  • Caregivers must complete first-aid and CPR training.
  • Facilities must provide daily meals to residents.
  • Residents must be told about any changes in the cost of their room, meals, and care.
  • Caregivers must pass a state-approved, caregiver training program.
  • Facilities must be maintained and adhere to state building codes.
  • Residents must be told about all care services they will receive.
  • Caregivers must be 18 years or older.

Arizona strengthened its background check requirements in 2022 for workers in assisted living communities. The new law restricts felons convicted of violent crimes and financial fraud from holding positions in Arizona assisted living communities.

The Inspection results can be found for facilities on the Residential Facilities Provider Search Form.

What assisted living is like in Scottsdale

Scottsdale’s warm, dry weather has long been a draw for seniors, but it also offers a unique combination of urban convenience, exciting activities, and easy access to desert solitude and the rugged McDowell Mountains. Scottsdale seniors benefit from a variety of assisted living community choices from the intimate board and care homes to larger assisted living facilities with their range of activities and luxury options.

Scottsdale assisted living communities offer multiple care types on one campus

Seniors who want the convenience of living in one facility regardless of future care needs will find that Scottsdale offers several multi-care communities to choose from. A Place for Mom’s partner communities include the following options:[01]

  • Eight facilities combine assisted living and memory care facilities.
  • Nine facilities offer assisted living, independent living, and memory care.
  • Residential group homes are most common, with 35 in the local area.

Board and care homes

Board and care homes are common in Scottsdale and often cost less than larger assisted living communities. Offering a more a personalized experience, these facilities are typically located in residential neighborhoods and many are converted from single-family homes. Residents of board and care homes usually share a room with one other resident and have access to all the common areas of the house.

Personal care services offered at board and care homes are similar to larger assisted living communities and are available 24/7. And, while there may be fewer amenities, these communities usually offer peaceful outdoor common spaces, like a backyard or patio, a dining room, and a living room. Board and care homes typically offer on-site skilled nursing through partnerships with home health care agencies to provide residents with the advanced care they need, so they can age in place.

Worry-free accommodations and individualized care

Scottsdale assisted living facilities are designed with seniors’ overall well-being in mind, providing ample opportunities for intellectual stimulation, physical activity, and socializing. They also provide extra help with activities of daily living which may include assistance with the following tasks:

  • Bathing
  • Dressing
  • Using the bathroom
  • Mobility
  • Eating
  • Medication management
  • Transportation
  • Housekeeping and laundry
  • Meal preparation

Luxurious amenities

Scottsdale has a reputation for luxury living which extends to assisted living communities. Residents will find several communities that offer resort-style amenities including:

  • Spacious floor plans
  • Pools
  • Gardens and patios
  • Spas
  • On-site cafés, pubs, and coffee shops

These communities also have calendars full of engaging activities that seniors of all ability levels can take part in. Examples include barbecues or picnics, holiday and birthday parties, religious services, educational lectures, book clubs, yoga, gardening, and Tai Chi. Off-site group trips are also popular, like trips to the nearby Vegas-style casino.

Multilingual communities

Scottsdale is home to many assisted living communities with multilingual staff. More than half of our partner communities have Spanish-speaking staff, and 12% have staff that speak Filipino.[01] This helps ensure multilingual seniors can fully communicate their care needs in their preferred language. This also helps residents feel content and comfortable in their new surroundings.
