Short-term rehab or long-term care?
Medicare rates these separately, and many homes are better at one than the other.
Long-term care
For residents who live at the home for months or years.

What a stay may cost
- Short-term rehab with Medicare: after a qualifying hospital stay, Medicare pays in full for days 1–20. From day 21 to day 100 you pay $217 a day (2026), unless other coverage pays it. Medicare stops after day 100. Estimate a rehab stay →
- Paying privately: ask the home for its daily rate and what it includes. As a guide, Georgia’s Medicaid program uses about $11,122 a month as the average cost of nursing home care (April 2026); see the state’s figure.
- Medicaid: this home is certified for Medicaid, which pays for most long-term care once savings run low. Ask whether a Medicaid bed is available. Medicaid rules in Georgia →
