Free, no-signup tools built on official survey and government data — estimate care costs in any state, check Medicaid eligibility for long-term care, and look up real quality ratings before you choose a nursing home.
Pick a state and a type of care — assisted living, nursing home, memory care, home care or adult day care — and see monthly and annual medians, plus a multi-year projection with inflation and your savings gap.
Calculate care costs →Will Medicaid pay for long-term care? Enter income, assets and marital status to check all three financial tests for your state — including spousal protections (CSRA & MMNA) and how far over the limit you are.
Check eligibility →Search all 1,165 Medicare-certified nursing homes in California with official CMS five-star ratings, inspection deficiencies, fines, staffing hours and red flags — and compare up to three homes side by side.
Look up a nursing home →Cost figures come from the CareScout (formerly Genworth) Cost of Care Survey 2025 — the industry-standard benchmark — and Medicaid thresholds use published 2026 federal and state standards. Nursing home quality data comes straight from the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Provider Information dataset. Every tool shows its sources and methodology on the page.
Costs are medians for planning only — your actual quote will differ by city, facility and level of care.
