  4. Cost of Senior Care in Florida The Florida Health Care Association reports that in 2023, the median annual cost of care for a private room in a skilled nursing facility will be $100,375, while the median cost for a semi-private room will be $89,297. For assisted living facilities, the median cost of care for a private room is $48,000.

  5. Importance of Medicaid Planning Without Medicaid coverage, the average length of stay for patients in skilled nursing facilities is 386 days, leaving many seniors with bills that are impossible to pay. This is where Medicaid planning becomes crucial, as it helps alleviate the financial pressure on elderly individuals and their families.

  6. Entitlement to Medicaid Benefits and Protecting Assets All taxpayers pay into the Medicaid system throughout their lives, and those with higher assets and incomes have usually contributed substantially more. Platinum believes these individuals are entitled to Medicaid benefits and should not have to deplete their assets to receive the care they need.

  7. Value Of Medicaid Planning for Middle- Class Senior Citizens Most individuals needing long-term care fall into the middle category of not being destitute or rich. For example, a patient with $50,000-$100,000 in assets would quickly deplete their savings in a skilled nursing facility without Medicaid.
