The Lakeway market specifically

Lakeway is an established Lake Travis retiree destination and a predominantly higher-end private-pay market, with several communities clustered near Medical Parkway. Medicaid-contracted options are scarce here, which matters if private funds are finite — worth asking about before a move rather than after.

The Medical Parkway cluster means several communities sit within a few minutes of each other, which makes same-day comparison tours practical. It also means the local market is small enough that availability can vanish quickly.

What the contract does that the tour does not

The residency agreement decides what happens when things change: how care levels are reassessed and repriced, how much notice is required on either side, what the deposit covers and whether it is refundable, and whether disputes go to arbitration.

Ask for a blank copy to take home before you are asked to sign anything. A community that will not provide one has told you something useful.

You can check any Texas facility's record free. Use TULIP for current license status and the legacy HHSC provider search for inspection and deficiency history. Read the full explanation →

Questions Austin families ask

How much spending money does a Texas nursing home resident keep?

Texas sets the Personal Needs Allowance at $75 per month, raised from $60 effective January 1, 2024. That's well above the $30 federal minimum. Nearly all remaining income, after Medicare premiums, any spousal allowance, and allowable medical expenses, goes to the facility as applied income.

Will Texas take my mother's house after she goes on Medicaid?

Texas may file an estate recovery claim after death if she was 55 or older when receiving services and first applied for long-term services on or after March 1, 2005. This covers nursing home care and STAR+PLUS. Texas never recovers more than it paid, and exemptions and hardship waivers exist.

Does Texas have a state program that pays for assisted living?

Not broadly. Texas has no general state-funded assisted living benefit. Two narrow options exist: STAR+PLUS Medicaid waiver assisted living services covering care but not room and board, and the state-funded Residential Care program under Community Care for Aged and Disabled, funded by Title XX block grants with interest lists.

How do I get on the STAR+PLUS waiver list in Austin?

Call 2-1-1 or visit YourTexasBenefits.com to join the interest list, then apply for Medicaid. Next comes a medical necessity assessment, choosing a managed care organization, and building a service plan with a coordinator. The Capital Area ADRC at 855-937-2372 can help you navigate the process.
