New York scores a D grade in our Elder Care Index at #37 of 51. New York's top category is Medicaid support, with a relatively generous Medicaid program for seniors — however, nursing home quality drags the score down, with nursing home inspection scores that lag behind most states. New York's Medicaid program is among the most comprehensive for seniors, but high costs make it essential to understand what's covered.
