How to Pay for Senior Care: what drives the number
Almost no Pennsylvania family pays for care from one source. The common sequence is private savings and Social Security first, then long-term-care insurance if it exists, then VA Aid & Attendance for eligible veterans, and finally Community HealthChoices as assets draw down. Mapping that timeline early — before a crisis — is what keeps families from overspending on the wrong setting.
