What a stay may cost

  • Medicare: this home isn’t certified for Medicare, so Medicare won’t pay for a stay here.
  • Paying privately: ask the home for its daily rate and what it includes. As a guide, Oregon’s Medicaid program uses about $16,760 a month as the average cost of nursing home care (October 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 Oregon →

Medicare amounts from Medicare.gov. Prices vary with room type and care needs, so always confirm with the home.
