Most people probably associate Medicaid with health insurance for the nation's poorest citizens, but it is also the largest single funding source for elder nursing home care. The program also provides in-home care for the elderly, but this option requires a waiver that can be hard to get.

If you're over 65 years of age and in need of nursing care - in your home or at an outside facility - Medicaid places income and asset limitations in order for you to qualify.For most purposes, the Medicaid applicant cannot have income exceeding $2,382 a month, or assets exceeding $2,000 (which rises to $3,000 if two spouses are applying).

The cost of nursing home care in Indiana often varies depending on where the facility is located. Some estimates place the average daily cost of nursing home care in the state at $215 per day, which can rack up costs in excess of $78,000 a year. Other sources estimate an average monthly cost of $4,100 which would be nearly $50,000 a year.
