Buda in context

Austin proper has the widest range of care levels in the metro and the widest range of prices with it. Central and west-side communities price toward the top of the market; north and northeast Austin is generally more moderate. Traffic is the practical constraint families underestimate — a community fifteen minutes away at 10 a.m. can be forty at six in the evening, and evening is when most visits actually happen.

Questions Austin families ask

Will Texas take my mother's house after she goes on Medicaid?

Texas may file an estate recovery claim after death if she was 55 or older when receiving services and first applied for long-term services on or after March 1, 2005. This covers nursing home care and STAR+PLUS. Texas never recovers more than it paid, and exemptions and hardship waivers exist.

Does Texas have a state program that pays for assisted living?

Not broadly. Texas has no general state-funded assisted living benefit. Two narrow options exist: STAR+PLUS Medicaid waiver assisted living services covering care but not room and board, and the state-funded Residential Care program under Community Care for Aged and Disabled, funded by Title XX block grants with interest lists.

How do I get on the STAR+PLUS waiver list in Austin?

Call 2-1-1 or visit YourTexasBenefits.com to join the interest list, then apply for Medicaid. Next comes a medical necessity assessment, choosing a managed care organization, and building a service plan with a coordinator. The Capital Area ADRC at 855-937-2372 can help you navigate the process.
