Skilled nursing is the most expensive senior-care setting. Medicare pays for short-term skilled nursing (up to 100 days) after a qualifying hospital stay, with cost-sharing after day 20. Long-term stays are usually paid by Medicaid, long-term care insurance, or private pay; most long-stay residents end up on Medicaid after spending down their savings.
North Carolina's cost-of-living index is 94.9 (100 = US average). The median home price is around $172,500. Average rent runs about $907 a month. These local costs influence what you can expect to pay for care here.
Skilled nursing fits seniors who need 24-hour licensed medical care, short-term rehabilitation after a hospital stay, or active treatment for conditions assisted living can't safely manage. It is not the right level of care for someone who's mostly independent - that's assisted living or independent living. Many families use skilled nursing only as a final stage, or for short-term rehab.
