Caregiver Payment Options
Finding senior care for yourself or your loved ones can be challenging. Don’t let the cost of home care stand in the way of providing temporary, part-time or live-in assistance that he or she needs.
We are happy to help you understand your payment options so you can select the best, most affordable care.
Private Payment
Private payment is often the only option initially available when it comes to covering the cost of essential in-home care. In addition to Social Security benefits and private pensions, drawing on savings is sometimes the most immediate means of covering the cost of in-home care. As resources like savings, pensions and other resources diminish, the amount of available care assistance options increases. Most assistance programs determine eligibility based on an individual’s resources, and the amount of monetary assistance available is often inversely proportionate to an individual’s resources. So initially, it may be necessary to ask family members to contribute to your loved one’s in-home care costs.
Long-Term Care Insurance
The first step in planning for your loved one’s home care needs is to determine if he or she has a long-term care insurance plan. Since individuals who require non-medical home care are not sick in the traditional sense, traditional health insurance, Medicare and Medicaid do not provide for their needs. Having a long-term care insurance policy in place prior to any major changes in the health and mobility of your loved one guarantees they will have complete home care coverage assistance available if and when they need it.
Veteran’s Benefits
A VA benefit specifically available to a veteran or their surviving spouse for home care is a program called Aid & Attendance (A&A). For information, call Toll Free 1-877-222-8387 for the department of Aid & Attendance. The A&A benefit provides monthly payments to be used to help cover the cost of a home health aide. It may be best to consult your trusted professional eldercare attorney or financial planner before beginning the application process. The Veteran’s discharge papers will be needed. There is no charge to complete an application and benefits are determined based on physical and financial need. Be sure to always make copies of any forms and correspondence sent to the Veterans Administration and have patience. If you are approved, the payments are made retroactively from when you applied. It can take several months until you hear back from the VA.

What Our Clients Say
L M2022-10-06Great employees. They will take good care of your loved one.
Dr Milo2021-04-16Top notch service for us. We were in need of care and Assured In Home Care and Dale/Carla were responsive and professional. They knew exactly our needs and were able to send us a caregiver that could help with our day to day. We would highly recommend them without question.
Birgitta Depaoli2020-08-18Carla and her team helped my 88 year old dad after a fall that resulted in his inability to walk or care for himself. All care takers where truly compassionate and engaged with my dad and gave my mom the much needed support during this trying time. They assisted my dad with his physical therapy exercises and after 3 months he is was able to walk independently again and has regained his strength. We interviewed other larger home-care companies and right away realized that bigger is not better. I highly trust Carla and her team. - Bridget
jimmymontes792020-06-09My aunt Leila loves her caregiver. Assured OC has been caring for my aunt for some time now, we couldn't be happier.
Kimberly Walters2020-06-09Thinking about finding a caregiver to care for our mother was a daunting task until a friend of mine shared Assured with me. My friends mother Linda is at Irvine Cottages and they are so impressed with the care she is receiving. My friend said that Assured is the same owners as Irvine Cottages and they give exceptional service and their caregivers are wonderful too! I called Carla and she was fantastic and helped me immediately. My mother loved her caregivers Naomi, Sara and David. What would we have done without them!!! They were lifesavers and I am so blessed we have Assured to help us with mom. Thank YOU!!!
Erin Brennan2017-10-20I would like to highly recommend Assured In Home Care. My great grandmother was in need of an in home caregiver, and Carla Turney was instrumental in guiding our family through the process. Carla is extremely knowledgeable and her empathic and loving personality put us at ease. Assured's caregivers are professional and caring.
Vanessa Ragle2017-10-18When you find yourself in need of in-home care, Assured is certainly the company to call. Both of my aging parents were in need of assistance at home so we reached out to Assured for help. Assured is responsive, prompt, and 100% accommodating of our needs. Carla has a way with clients that makes them totally at ease and comfortable with the process and is very in tune with her clients to know which caregivers are the “best fit”. Thank you to Assured, Carla and her staff for all your kindness and dedication to your clients.
Gary Zager2017-10-13Assured InHome Care in Orange County helped make the final days of my mom's life more comfortable. Carla was very caring and loving!
Jeff Abbit2017-10-10This company certainly lives up to its name!! Before going to a board and care, I used Assured InHome Care for my mother. They were very accommodating. My mom can be very picky but Assured always managed to provide a caregiver that she liked. The company also was 100% responsive, even when I needed a caregiver last minute! Carla and her staff are very sensitive to your needs and do whatever they can to make you and your loved one happy. They definitely deserve 5 stars for being a company that gives 5-star customer service.
Shann Rowan2017-10-02My father suffered a ruptured brain aneurysm which led a stroke. He was unable to speak or write, and he had trouble walking. He was 55. We were truly blessed when we found Carla and Assured InHome Care. My father needed someone dedicated and knowledgeable and caring. They were able to place a longtime caregiver, Daniel, with our family. His dedication and daily exercises, both physical and lingual, helped my father recover with wonderful speed and success. My father is now fully recovered. My family and I truly believe it was through Assured and Daniel that we were able to get such wonderful caregiving, and get my father back to living..
