Primer on understanding medicaid for Supportive living and housing data for SSI beneficiaries

02-18-2018 00:14

Hi All,

I came across an interesting couple of reports.  The first is a primer to understanding how different medicaid plans can be used to provide permanent supportive living.  It is primarily aimed at policy makers to aid in their decision-making, but it provides an interesting contrast between medicaid rate-setting methodologies and LCP cost analysis.  The report is attached but the link to the website where it can be found is here. http://www.tacinc.org/knowledge-resources/topics/permanent-supportive-housing/

The second report serves more as useful data to describe the sufficiency of SSI benefits on housing costs.  It provides a state-by-state, and by region, cost of housing.  For example, in my home city of Iowa City, the cost of housing is 105% of the SSI benefit for a 1 bedroom home, meaning that the cost of housing exceeds the amount of benefit provided leaving a person to seek funding elsewhere to cover basic needs.  This report can be found here. tacinc.org/media/59493/priced-out-in-2016.pdf
