Memory care in Athens →Paying for TerraBella Athens with VA Benefits
TerraBella Athens 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. Most families pair it with Social Security, a pension, savings, or proceeds from selling a home. Recurring assisted living bills count as medical expenses; what counts as a medical expense for VA explains the math.
| Household | Maximum Aid & Attendance per month | Left of a $5,845 bill |
|---|---|---|
| Two veterans married, both qualifying | $3,845 | $2,000 |
| Veteran married to a non-veteran | $2,874 | $2,971 |
| Single veteran | $2,424 | $3,421 |
| Surviving spouse | $1,558 | $4,287 |
