Who pays, and how full it is

Most residents here have their care paid by Medicaid. In Connecticut, Medicaid pays for 68% of resident days at a typical home.

  • 62% Medicaid
  • 10% Medicare
  • 27% Private pay, insurance and other
Beds in use, on average93%Connecticut typical: 89%
Cost of care per resident day$402Connecticut typical: $392

Shares of resident days, from the home’s Medicare cost report for the year ending September 2024. The cost per day is what care costs the home to provide, not the price you would pay; ask the home for its private-pay rate. A busy home may have fewer open beds, so ask about availability.
