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 Seniorly, seen September 9, 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.

On 12/06/2024 at 11:00 AM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) James Sampair and David Doidge arrived unannounced to conduct this 1-Year Annual Required inspection. The LPAs explained the purpose of the visit and met with Assistant Executive Director (AED) Iryn Macamay. The LPAs toured rooms of the facility, which included but not limited to bedrooms, bathrooms, multiple activity rooms, kitchen, and common area. The LPAs observed that the lighting in all of the rooms is adequate for the comfort and safety of the residents. The room temperature measured in Room 217 was 70.7 degrees Fahrenheit. The hot water temperature is monitored daily by maintenance staff and measured between 114 and 119 degrees Fahrenheit over the past week. There is a minimum of one week supply of nonperishable and 2 days of perishable foods. Centrally stored medications, sharps are locked, and inaccessible to residents in care. The first aid kit was observed to be complete. The pool was appropriately fenced and secured. The fire extinguishers were last serviced on 12/13/2024. The emergency disaster plan is reviewed at least annually, and the last update to the plan was made on 12/4/2025. Emergency disaster drills are conducted monthly and last conducted on 11/27/2025.

Allegation investigated: Wrongful eviction.

On 12/06/2024 at 10:00 AM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) James Sampair and David Doidge arrived unannounced at the facility to complete the investigation of the allegation above. Upon entry, the LPAs explained the purpose of the visit to Assistant Executive Director (AED) Iryn Macamay. The complaint alleges a wrongful eviction of Resident R1. The LPAs reviewed R1 documentation and interviewed Witness W1, the AED, and Assisted Living Director Graciela Canseco. The data collected shows that R1 requires a higher level of care than the facility can provide. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove it; therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

“Typical” is the statewide median for licensed homes this size. It does not adjust for years licensed, and older licenses have had more visits and reports. The median is across the 1,354 licensed larger communities (16+ beds) in the state record. The figures compared are the state’s totals, not the documents.

An “unsubstantiated” complaint is not a finding of wrongdoing — it means the state investigated and could not confirm the allegation. Outcome words are the state’s own; we never grade, score, or color a record, and we publish no reviews — the state’s dated documents stand in their place.

What does Byron Park cost?

$9,495 a month to start — listed by the home on Seniorly · September 9, 2026.

The home lists this starting rate on Seniorly, seen September 9, 2026.

Among 26 other homes of a similar licensed size across Contra Costa County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,075 to $6,485 a month, and the middle figure is $5,370 (n = 26 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 Byron Park 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.
