How people payPrivate pay, Medi-Cal waiver, SSI/SSP, veterans, insurance
  • MedicareDoes not pay for room and board in a care home. It can still cover hospice or home-health visits inside one.
  • Private payMost residents pay from savings, a home sale or family help. Ask for the rate and what it includes in writing.
  • Medi-Cal Assisted Living WaiverThis home is not on the DHCS participation list dated October 1, 2026. Ask the program about current options. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.
  • SSI/SSPCalifornia’s 2026 standard is $1,626.07 a month; $1,444.07 of it goes to the home and $182 stays with the resident. Whether this home accepts it is not on file — ask.
  • VeteransVA Aid & Attendance can add to a veteran’s or surviving spouse’s pension. Ask whether residents here have used it.
  • Long-term care insuranceMost policies pay for licensed care homes. Ask what paperwork the home provides for claims.

How this estimate worksWhere this price comes from

The home lists this starting rate on its own website, seen October 27, 2026.

  • Only prices a home put out itself count: its own website, a listing it supplied, or a price Seniorly says the home confirmed. Prices a listing site shows without saying where they came from are left out.
  • Nearby homes are the nearest of the same size that publish a rate, widening from 3 to 40 miles until at least 8 do. The estimate starts from what they charge, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices.
  • Room, care-level, second-person and move-in lines come from what California homes publish on listing sites. Memory care uses Covelight’s researched premium over assisted living.
  • Totals add each line’s figure and combine the lines’ ranges as separate charges, because a home is rarely at the top, or the bottom, of every line at once.
  • We tested this estimate on 1,546 California homes that publish their own starting rate. It was within 10% of the real rate for 3 in 10 homes and within 25% for 7 in 10; the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 (September 12, 2026).
  • It cannot see this home’s specials, how it assesses care, or which rooms are open.
Avoid surprises on the billWhat changes the price, and what to ask
  • The care level

    Some homes charge one all-inclusive rate. Others add levels or points as needs grow. Ask how the level is set, who decides, and what the next level costs.

  • What is billed separately

    Medication management, incontinence supplies, transportation and a second person in the room are often extra. Ask for the list in writing.

  • Move-in costs

    A one-time move-in fee or deposit is common. Ask what it covers and whether any of it comes back if the stay is short.

  • Increases

    California requires at least 90 days’ written notice, with reasons, before a rate rises (Health & Safety Code §1569.655). A change in the resident’s care level is the section’s own exception and can be billed sooner.

Ask for the price

An estimate for planning, not a quote. A home sets the price after hearing about the care needed.

Allegation investigated: Staff not properly supervising resident resulting multiple hip dislocation at the facility.

On 02/26/2025, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Loera and Deniz conducted an unannounced visit for the purpose of delivering complaint findings. LPA arrived and met with Executive Director, Corrine Tanchoco. During the course of the investigation, LPA reviewed records, conducted interviews with staff and outside parties, and made observations. Medical records were reviewed by the Departments Program Clinical Consultant. Compliant alleges, Staff not properly supervising resident resulting multiple hip dislocation at the facility. Based upon department interviews with staff, information provided was contradicting with a lack of corroborating evidence to support the allegation. On Residents (R1) Pre-Placement Appraisal dated 05/31/2024 notes R1 uses a walker to ambulate with and is considered non ambulatory (slow, help with bathing, dressing, and toileting). R1’s Functional Needs Service Plan that was signed by POA states under functional capabilities (3. fall risk) requires minimal assistance, (16. Transfer ability) does not require assistance, and (20. Escorting) does not require assistance. continued on LIC9099-C Unsubstantiated R1’s physician’s report (602) (dated 05/29/2024) mentions hip dislocation under diagnoses. This Department’s Program Clinical Consultant reviewed medical records from Marin General Hospital that show R1 had surgery on 08/18/2024 to correct the problem. Medical records revealed that after surgery on 08/19/2024 R1’s hip was corrected. Review of medical records show R1 sustained hip dislocations while doing day to day activities (walking, bending forward to pick something off floor, waking-up and trying to walk), all were non-trauma related. Medical Records also show per R1’s history, R1 underwent hip replacement surgery on 08/10/2016 after suffering a left femur fracture. R1’s hip dislocations cannot be attributed from staff neglect. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Feb 26, 2025 · control 21-AS-20241017124159

LPA met with Executive Director (ED), Corrine Tanchoco and Resident Service Director (RSD), Jocelyn Vahle. SOC341 dated 02/28/2024: SOC341 states that Staff #1 (S1) went into Resident #1s (R1s) apartment to provide a bathroom reminder. When R1 saw S1 approaching them, R1 became agitated and punched S1 in the throat. S1 called RSD to the apartment and R1 admitted to punching S1. R1 stated that they believed S1 was going to take them to the bathroom and sexually assault them. R1 stated that they were upset that staff comes into their room to change their incontinence briefs and touch their genitals. RSD and ED confirmed that R1 has been having an increase in agitation and hallucinations due to R1s Parkinsons diagnosis. Per R1's physicians report that was conducted before move-in, R1 has a diagnosis of Parkinsons disease, as well as confused/ disoriented behaviors. RSD and ED have since contacted R1s POA as well as R1s Primary Care Provider (PCP) due to a change in cognition. R1 now has a 1 on 1 caregiver in place which will continue until R1 has an evaluation with their PCP to make any necessary medication adjustments. Incident Report dated 03/08/2024: Incident Report states that R2s wallet was reported to be missing. R2 remembered last having their wallet on Thursday afternoon when they went out of the community with their family. R2 noticed their wallet was missing on Friday morning. R2s family member helped to search R2s apartment and it was located at the bottom of a moving box that had not yet been unpacked, and found that there was $300 in cash missing. Continued on LIC809C Continued from LIC809 R2s family filed a police report and the facility conducted an internal investigation. The internal investigation narrowed it down to one caregiver (Staff #2, S2) who had entered the room between Thursday and Friday. When S2 was questioned about the incident, their story was not consistent with what the facilities electronic key log revealed. S2 has since been terminated. Incident Report dated 03/14/2024: Incident Report states that R3 was found by a housekeeper (Staff #3, S3) outside of the memory care unit waiting for an elevator to go down. RSD reviewed security footage at the time of incident and found that a culinary staff (Staff #4, S4) let R3 out of the door without realizing they were a memory care resident. R2 was outside of the memory care unit for a total of 2 minutes. Per conversation with RSD and ED, R3 doesn't exhibit clear dementia symptoms to those who do not know them. Per review of R3s physicians report, R3 does not have a diagnosis of dementia, and does not indicate whether or not R3 can leave the facility unassisted. However, there is conflicting information with another medical document which reveals that R3 does have a dementia diagnosis. LPA confirmed with RSD that R3 cannot leave the memory care unit. LPA discussed with RSD getting an updated physicians report that reflects R3s dementia diagnosis. Deficiencies are cited from the California Code of Regulations (CCRs), and/or the Health and Safety Code. Failure to correct the cited deficiency(ies), on or before the Plan of Correction (POC) due date, may result in a civil penalty assessment. Exit interview conducted.

Apr 11, 2023Complaint investigation reportUnsubstantiated

Allegation investigated: Neglect/Lack of supervision resulting in resident sustaining severe injuries and hospitalization

At approximately 9:15AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Felias arrived unannounced on 04/11/2023 to deliver findings regarding the above allegation. LPA met with Executive Director, Corrine Tanchoco. During the investigation, the Department conducted interviews, reviewed documents, and made observations. There was an allegation that Neglect/Lack of supervision resulted in resident sustaining severe injuries and hospitalization. Reporting Party (RP) reported that Resident 1 (R1) suffered a ground level fall onto their left side and sustained a left femoral neck fracture and a left clavicle fracture resulting in surgery. During the investigation, the Department learned that R1 was sent to the hospital after a witnessed fall when R1 attempted to stand while using a walker in a common area of the facility. R1 was sent to the hospital and underwent hip surgery. R1 was additionally diagnosed with a left clavicle fracture; seventh and eighth rib fractures (age indeterminate, likely acute); and a mildly impacted left femoral neck fracture, with no evidence of hip dislocation. R1 was discharged to a skilled nursing facility, and later returned to the facility. Continued on LIC809C Unsubstantiated Continued from LIC809 R1 gave conflicting statements about having a walker at the time of the fall. R1 reported that they lost their balance and fell. R1’s DPOA did not recall anytime that they visited R1, that R1 did not have their walker. Staff gave conflicting statements regarding the placement of the walker. Staff 1 (S1) who was in the area at the time of the fall, but was assisting another resident, reported that R1 had their hands on the walker at the time of the fall. R1's Needs and Services Plan states that they are to have their walker near them. In addition, the facility has put additional fall risk prevention procedures in place for R1. A finding that the complaint allegation of “Neglect/Lack of supervision resulting in resident sustaining severe injuries and hospitalization” is UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint is Unsubstantiated means that although the allegations may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur.

What does Atria Tamalpais Creek cost?

$4,995 a month to start — listed by the home on its own website · October 27, 2026.

The home lists this starting rate on its own website, seen October 27, 2026.

Among 9 other homes of a similar licensed size across Marin County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $7,277 to $7,843 a month, and the middle figure is $7,500 (n = 9 other homes publishing a starting rate).

Each of those is a home’s own published figure, gathered on its own date between September and October 2026 — not an average of ours, and not a survey. Similar size means small and mid-size homes counted together, and large communities counted on their own, because they are different markets.

A home outside the band is not overcharging or underpricing: a starting rate covers different things in different homes, which is the first thing to ask about.

The price is made in the phone call. Nothing here is a quote, an offer or a discount.

A starting rate is the room and the base care. California homes commonly bill care levels, medication management, supplies, transport and a second person in the room as extras. Many also charge a one-time fee at move-in. Ask for that list in writing before anything is signed.

Only prices a home put out itself count here: its own website, a listing it supplied, or a price a listing site says the home confirmed. Prices a site shows without saying where they came from are left out.

Does Atria Tamalpais Creek take Medi-Cal?

On Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver: this home is not on the DHCS participation list dated October 1, 2026. Ask the program about current options. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.
