How much does Discovery Village at Southlake cost?

HHSC does not collect prices and we do not post rates for individual communities, so ask Discovery Village at Southlake for its current rate sheet and care-level fees in writing. For context, memory care has no reliable published median (CareScout does not survey memory care as its own category, so there is no reliable published median; expect the all-in monthly figure to sit above the $5,250 Texas assisted living median).

Paying for it: Texas Medicaid's STAR+PLUS Home and Community Based Services program can cover care services, but not room and board, in a participating assisted living facility. Participation runs through the managed care plans rather than the HHSC license, so ask Discovery Village at Southlake directly whether it takes STAR+PLUS and has an opening. Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance. See how the Medicaid waiver works.
