Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Columbus, OH

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Ohio?

Does Ohio Medicaid cover nursing home care?

Yes — Ohio Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.

What is nursing home care?

How do I choose the right nursing home in Columbus, OH?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing.
