The Bedford market specifically

Bedford's location in the Mid-Cities, convenient to both DFW Airport and the Harris Methodist HEB hospital campus, has made it a practical base for families splitting caregiving duties across the wider metro.

Bedford's central Mid-Cities location often comes up as a compromise choice for families where siblings live on opposite ends of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

What the contract does that the tour does not

The residency agreement decides what happens when things change: how care levels are reassessed and repriced, how much notice is required on either side, what the deposit covers and whether it is refundable.

Questions families ask

Does Texas Medicaid pay for assisted living in Fort Worth?

Texas Medicaid pays for care services inside a participating assisted living facility through the STAR+PLUS HCBS waiver, but it does not pay the facility's room-and-board charge -- that portion remains the resident's financial responsibility, typically funded from the resident's own income.

What's the difference between Texas's Medicaid expansion and Medicaid for seniors?

Texas has not expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, but that decision has no bearing on long-term-care Medicaid for seniors, which is a completely separate, decades-old eligibility pathway for people who are 65 or older, or blind or disabled.

How does a Fort Worth family apply for the STAR+PLUS HCBS waiver?

Apply through Your Texas Benefits online, or call Texas 2-1-1 and ask for the aging and disability services option. A Texas HHSC caseworker will complete a nursing-facility level-of-care assessment as part of determining eligibility.

What are Texas's nursing facility Medicaid income and asset limits in 2026?

For 2026, the special income limit for Texas nursing facility Medicaid is $2,901/month, with a $2,000 asset limit for a single applicant. Income above the limit generally requires a Miller Trust (Qualified Income Trust) to still qualify.
