Elder Care Cost Guide

Contact

nursingcost.com is a small, independent reference site. We publish care-cost figures from public survey data, and we would rather be corrected than be wrong. Use the form below and we will answer by email if you leave an address.

What we can help with

  • A figure that looks wrong. Paste the page address and the number you saw. If it does not match the published source, we change the page and say what changed.
  • Where a number comes from. Every figure on this site is linked to its source and date — see how we source data. If a source link is broken, tell us and we will repair it.
  • Citing or reusing our data. Journalists, researchers and site owners are welcome to cite the national and state medians. The care cost reference page includes the citation format.
  • A question we have not answered yet. If there is a care-cost question you cannot find an answer to, ask it — it often becomes the next page we write.

What we cannot help with

  • Medical, legal, tax or financial advice, or eligibility decisions.
  • Pricing quotes from a specific care provider — those must come from the provider.
  • Finding or recommending a facility, or checking a facility’s quality.
  • Emergency or urgent situations — please contact a medical professional or a local helpline.

This site is not a care provider and takes no referral fees for placements.

Send us a message

We read every message. Messages about a specific figure are answered fastest when they include the page address and the number in question.

We use what you send only to answer you and to correct the site. No newsletter, no sharing — see our privacy policy.
