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

Assisted living in New York supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence.

Does New York Medicaid cover memory care?

New York Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including New York) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community.
