What ccrcs includes in Michigan
A Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) spans independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing on one campus, so a resident can age in place as needs change.
The assisted living portion is licensed as a Home for the Aged or Adult Foster Care and the skilled-nursing portion is LARA-licensed under the Public Health Code (1978 PA 368, Parts 213/217 and the Adult Foster Care Facility Licensing Act), with CCRC contracts governed by Michigan insurance and consumer-contract law. A typical monthly range is $3,000 to $6,500 a month plus a significant entrance fee.
When you visit, look past the lobby and check these:
- the entrance-fee refund terms in the contract
- the financial health of the operator and its reserves
- guaranteed access to higher levels of care and at what price
Ways to pay in Clinton Township
Most families layer several sources rather than relying on one. Private savings and Social Security typically lead, and long-term-care insurance follows when a policy is already in place. Wartime veterans and surviving spouses should check VA Aid & Attendance through the John D. Dingell VA Medical Center. And Michigan's MI Choice Waiver (with MI Health Link for dual-eligible seniors in Wayne and Macomb counties) can cover care services — though not room and board — for seniors who meet the functional and financial tests, after a nursing-facility level-of-care assessment. Clinton Township pricing runs toward the lower half of the metro range.
