Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Missouri

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Missouri?

Does Missouri Medicaid cover memory care?

Missouri Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Missouri) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
