A typical monthly range is $3,400 to $6,000 a month, often offset by VA Aid & Attendance.
Before you tour, know what actually predicts quality:
- whether the community has experience coordinating with VA Aid & Attendance paperwork
- how the benefit is applied to the monthly bill
- the wartime-service and income tests for the pension
