How much does The Plaza at Edgemere cost?

Paying for it: Texas Medicaid's STAR+PLUS Home and Community Based Services waiver can pay for care services in a participating assisted living facility, but not room and board. STAR+PLUS participation is contracted through the Medicaid managed care plans, not shown on the HHSC license, so ask The Plaza at Edgemere directly whether it has open STAR+PLUS beds. Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance. See our Dallas memory care cost guide.
