At Senior Living Experts, our services are entirely customized to the individual’s needs. This means we always take affordability into account when helping you find the best community for your loved one.
The Illinois Supportive Living Program
Some low-income seniors may be eligible for the Illinois Supportive Living Program, administered by the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family. This will allow them to receive some services that aren’t typically covered by Medicaid. All you will have to do is send a waiver to the Medicaid program.
If approved, the program will cover the cost of everything you need, outside of room and board.
Who is Eligible for the Supportive Living Program?
To apply for the Illinois Supportive Living Program, residents must be 65 years or older (or 22 to 64 with a physical disability) and have an income higher than the SSI of $750 per month. Eligibility also requires that the resident doesn’t have developmental or cognitive disabilities.
