I have never heard about board and care in my area. I was told of a home that was bought to care for a man's mother. He set up aides and invited 4 or 5 other women to live there, he paying for their care. When one passes, then someone else is brought in.

Are your referring to a “board & care” type of home? If that’s it, it’s going to depend on their licensing as to if they are able to meet the criteria the State has to have a facility have to participate in a community based Medicaid program.

The place should have all this info readily available for you & they should have signage up in the common areas as to their licensing, ombudsman contact, emergency FAQs etc. Also the State Dept of health / human services or Disabled/Aging should have a list of participating vendors.

fwiw Board & Care homes tend to be few & far between. They are in a grey area between being communal lining and assisted living. Most states residential LTC Medicaid program covers only SNF aka skilled nursing care services in a NH. Most States do not pay for AL at all.
