Nursing home cost levels are continually increasing. Inflation is very much under control but the rates are going up year after year. A recent projection report reveals that an average daily expense of a private room in a nursing room in the United States is $192 a day or $70,080 per year.
Most people are living longer and having a longer life but it might not be accompanied by good health always and the likelihood increase as the people get older and they start to develop chronic condition or physical or cognitive disabilities for which they need required assistance. Approximately about 1.6 millions of people reside in 18,000 nursing homes in the United States alone and more than 1.3 millions of people receive home health care services.
It is predicted that by the year 2030, Nursing home costs could reach $190K a year and financial planners have been warning about the increasing elderly care costs for coming years and the five costliest areas with higher nursing home care costs include Alaska, New York City, Connecticut, New York State and Washington DC. Financial planners are insisting that the Americans, especially those who are in their 50s to take strict view at their financial condition and to determine taking long-term care insurance should be a part of their retirement planning strategy, which can help them later on in life.
