Paying with Medicaid and other programsHow Medicaid pays for care in Kansas, and other programs
How Medicaid pays for care in Kansas
- HCBS Frail Elderly (FE) Waiver. Kansas Medicaid's Frail Elderly (FE) waiver is for people 65 and older who meet the nursing facility threshold and qualify for Medicaid. KDADS says it pays for some, but not all, services for people living in an assisted living facility, residential health care facility, home plus, or boarding care home. To apply, start with the Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC). The state Medicaid agency can confirm whether it pays for services in assisted living. (state page)
- Waitlist. KDADS began a waitlist for the Frail Elderly waiver for people assessed on or after July 6, 2026. The KDADS site blocks automated access; the quote was read from the search index copy of the notice. (source)
Ask the community whether it accepts Medicaid.

How Lilisity works. The only scores or rankings Lilisity publishes are the Top Communities list and the Excellence Awards, both built from phone-verified resident and family interviews. Communities can pay Lilisity a flat monthly fee to manage their own listing: photos, prices, contact details, and receiving the inquiries families choose to send them. The fee is the same no matter how many families contact them or move in. Senior Living Alliance, which runs Lilisity, offers the same listing to its member communities as part of their membership; members pay SLA for its resident and family interview program. No community pays Lilisity per inquiry, per referral or per move-in. Payment never changes a testimonial, a rating, or the order of search results. The "Nearby Senior Living Alliance communities" box shows member communities only. How we verify testimonials · How we are paid
