The number of no-cost days decreases by 10 for each year that a new resident closes escrow after age of 74 (180 days) to a minimum of 20 days (90+ in age). After the no-cost days are exhausted, the resident pays a monthly fee to live in the health center. Under the present medical contract the fee is $137.50 per day in either the assisted living or the skilled nursing unit. Note: The fee is $275 per day in either unit for a resident with a medical exclusion.
