Free and Low-Cost Assisted Living Resources for Seniors in Phoenix

In addition to enjoying affordable assisted living, residents in Phoenix also have access to numerous free and low-cost resources from government and nonprofit organizations to help them make informed decisions, gain access to financial aid and participate in various programs and activities.

Resource Contact Description
State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) 602-264-4357 SHIP is a program for Phoenix residents who are already enrolled in Medicare or preparing to. In addition to receiving help enrolling in Medicare and submitting appeals, seniors receive free advice from counselors to help them make better-informed decisions relating to health insurance. The process begins with one-on-one meetings where counselors discuss a senior’s current circumstances and coverage needs, after which residents are advised of the most appropriate plans, such as private health care insurance. Counselors don’t try to sell insurance to seniors.
Long-Term Care Ombudsman 888-264-2258 The Long-Term-Care Ombudsman offers residents a free and confidential way to express any concerns or have their complaints addressed. Ombudsmen make routine visits to facilities, where they talk to residents about their rights and any issues they’re having and monitor the facility’s conditions. The responsibility of the ombudsman includes educating residents, their families and facilities of their rights and advocating for changes to improve residents’ quality of life and care.
Maricopa County Department of Human Services 602-506-5911 In the Senior and Adult Services Division (SASD), quality case management services are provided, coordinating home and community-based resources and services for seniors 60 and older and adults ages 18-59 with physical disabilities who receive or are applying for SSI/SSB disability payments. Case management focuses on maintaining quality of life in the home and the community for those in the aging and disabled population. Individuals with the greatest economic and social needs are prioritized to provide the best service possible.
VA Aid and Attendance Benefits 800-827-1000 Veterans and their spouses can use the VA Aid and Attendance benefit to help pay some of their costs in an assisted living facility. The maximum payout varies between individuals, with a single veteran receiving $1,881, a couple receiving $2,230 and a surviving spouse receiving $1,209. Veterans unsure if they qualify can check by using the free tool on VeteranAid.org.
