How people pay for senior apartments in Birmingham

Medicaid, Medicare, and long-term care insurance programs don’t cover senior apartment communities. This is because they do not provide care. However, Medicaid, Medicare, and long-term care insurance may help seniors pay for medically necessary in-home care services in their apartments. But there are other benefits that can help you shoulder the cost of senior apartments.

In this guide, you can explore private pay, housing assistance, VA benefits, and Medicare/Medicaid resources for seniors.

Private pay methods in Birmingham

When planning a move to a senior apartment, consider personal income resources such as investments, Social Security benefits, pensions, and savings accounts.

Long-term care insurance cannot be used for senior housing because these policies typically only cover medical care or nursing home stays. It may, however, cover in-home care services or assisted living costs if a senior ever needs care in their apartment or to move to an assisted living facility. Speak with your insurance provider to learn more about the coverage included in your policy.

VA benefits in Birmingham

Veterans can use several local and national resources to support their time in senior apartments.

One of the most important benefits for veterans to consider is the VA Aid and Attendance benefit. It will cover senior living expenses that improve the veteran’s quality of life. Veterans can apply using this form.

To learn more about applying for  these VA benefits, reach out to a local benefit counselor at a veterans service organization (VSO) to explore whether these options are right for you. In Birmingham, the local Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) and Disabled American Veterans (DAV) chapters offer legal representation and benefits advisory. The United Way’s Priority Veteran program can also help.

Birmingham Medicaid coverage for senior care services

Alabama Medicaid does not cover senior apartments, but it does cover medically necessary in-home health care services. Before applying for these benefits, review some things you need to know before submitting an application.

If the senior requires medically necessary in-home care in their apartment, Medicaid waivers may cover these costs through the Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver program.

Personal Choices is an option for individuals enrolled in an HCBS waiver program. Those in the program can choose their required services once a month. Financial counselors are on hand to help navigate the process, which includes creating a budget to manage the funds set aside for care. Seniors can get also help from the long-term ombudsman or the local United Way. In Jefferson County, ombudsman representatives are Sheree Head, Marc Newell, and Lakinda Taylor.

Medicare coverage for senior care in Birmingham

Medicare is a government-funded health care program that provides health insurance coverage to people 65 or older and certain individuals with disabilities. Although it covers various medical costs like doctor visits, hospital stays, and medical equipment, it doesn’t cover non-medical expenses such as senior apartments. There are, however, three Medicare Savings Programs options to help those eligible with medical costs.

If you need more information on what is covered and not covered by Medicare, you can visit the official Medicare website. Alternatively, you can contact Medicare by calling 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) or visiting your local Social Security office. Advocates, such as the long-term care ombudsman, can help.  The Alabama Department of Senior Services (SHIP) provides counseling and assistance as well. The Alabama Department of Senior Services (ADSS) helps seniors understand and apply for Medicare, but it doesn’t cover medical costs.

Public assistance for seniors in Birmingham

In Birmingham, some senior living apartments accept housing vouchers from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) through the Section 202 program. This program is designed to provide affordable housing with supportive services for seniors who are 62 or older. The Birmingham Housing Authority also manages various affordable housing options for seniors, including public housing and the Housing Choice Voucher Program Section 8, which provides rental assistance to low-income seniors. The program allows participants to live in any privately owned rental unit that meets program requirements, with the government subsidizing the rent. You can get more specific details about these applications from the local field office.

Social Security benefits can also be a source of income to help cover living expenses. There are various eligibility requirements.

Understand Alabama laws and regulations for senior apartments communities

To be eligible for senior apartments in Birmingham, individuals have to meet age requirements (generally 55+). These apartments are often designed for people on fixed incomes, and income requirements vary by community.

The application process may involve a credit check. Some communities may also require a criminal background check and a rental history check. While not typically designed for those with medical or physical disabilities, senior apartments must comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA). This means they must make reasonable accommodations for residents with disabilities, including those who use wheelchairs or other mobility aids.

In Alabama, senior apartments aren’t required to be licensed, but they must comply with state, federal, city, and county housing laws. Under the Fair Housing Act, senior apartments are prohibited from discriminating against applicants or residents based on legally protected characteristics, including age and ability. Furthermore, landlords must make reasonable accommodations for tenants with emotional support animals, such as the Fair Housing Act mandates, even if their properties have a no-pet policy.

The state of Alabama has a Landlord and Tenant Act outlining landlord and tenant responsibilities. Landlords are required by this act to keep their properties in a habitable condition, including the following:

  • Provide adequate heating, cooling, and ventilation.
  • Ensure the property is free of hazards.
  • Promptly address any necessary repairs or maintenance issues

Birmingham specifically has various building codes and ordinances that landlords must follow to ensure the safety of their tenants. Smoke detectors, fire alarms, emergency lighting, and other safety features may be required.

HUD-mandated federal regulations govern the Section 8 housing program in Birmingham. Landlords who accept Section 8 vouchers must follow HUD regulations regarding the rental property’s quality, safety, and maintenance as part of the program. These regulations include housing quality standards, rent reasonability, lease requirements, and non-discrimination requirements.

Multiple agencies, such as aging and health departments, may regulate facilities in some states. A thorough examination of the state website for all public reports, such as inspection reports, regulations, and resources, is important.

Transportation for seniors in Birmingham

Birmingham is a mostly car-dependent city. While there are some walkable areas, most residents own cars. Public transportation is available in Birmingham, but it’s not as extensive or widely used as in other cities.

To help fill that gap, Birmingham launched a transportation pilot program with Via to provide accessible vehicles for riders with disabilities and affordable shared rides for seniors at a flat fee of $1.50. The program is open 6 a.m. – 8 p.m. on Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. – 8 p.m. on Saturday.

The Birmingham-Jefferson County Transit Authority (BJCTA) operates MAX Transit, which offers fixed-route buses for 60 cents per ride for passengers who are 65 or older. The BJCTA also offers two programs for individuals with disabilities, including a door-to-door paratransit service for $1.25 per ride and a by-appointment option for seniors and people with disabilities for $3 per ride.

The Jefferson County Senior Services Division partners with ClasTran to provide round-trip transportation services to senior centers Monday through Friday (except holidays). Areas served include the following: Brighton, Center Point, Clay, Exeter-Fairfax, Fairfield, Forestdale, Hoover, Hueytown, Leeds, Edgewater, Sylvan Springs, Hopewell, Midfield, Morris, and Tarrant. These transportation services are available for field trips and daily center pickup and drop-off for those who are 60 and older.
