Brookdale University Park is a private community, not run by VA, and that is exactly where Aid & Attendance helps: the benefit pays the veteran or surviving spouse, who can use it toward the monthly bill here. Families usually combine it with savings, retirement income, the sale of a home, or long-term care insurance. Recurring assisted living bills count as medical expenses; what counts as a medical expense for VA explains the math.
