Paying with Medicaid and other programsHow Medicaid pays for care in Nebraska, and other programs
How Medicaid pays for care in Nebraska
- Medicaid HCBS Aged and Disabled (AD) Waiver: Supported Residential Living (formerly Assisted Living). Nebraska Medicaid's Aged and Disabled Waiver pays for a service called Supported Residential Living, which used to be called Assisted Living, in licensed assisted living facilities. You must get Nebraska Medicaid and need a nursing-home level of care, and you pay the room and board yourself. (state page)
- Waitlist. Nebraska's draft 2026 waiver renewal says there is no waiting list for the Aged and Disabled waiver. (source)
Ask the community whether it accepts Medicaid.

Emergency and natural hazard riskFEMA overall risk relatively moderate; outside FEMA's high-risk flood areas
Public hazard maps for this location. Ask the community about its emergency plan, its generator and where residents would go in an evacuation.
- Flood zone
- FEMA has a flood map for this community (effective September 22, 1999), but it is not in FEMA's digital flood map data, so the zone at this address could not be read. FEMA's Map Service Center has the map. (FEMA flood map)
- FEMA National Risk Index
- Overall: relatively moderate. By hazard: inland flooding relatively low, wildfire relatively low, tornado relatively high, heat wave relatively low, earthquake very low. These are FEMA’s ratings for the census tract, compared with tracts nationwide. (FEMA, December 2025)
A flood zone describes the map at this point, not the building's elevation. In an emergency, follow the local emergency management agency.

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
