CareScout Survey Shows Rising Long-Term Care Costs in Ohio

Long-term care costs in Ohio continued to rise in 2025, according to the latest Cost of Care Survey released by CareScout. The national survey, which collects provider-reported rates across the country, shows increases across several care settings. In Ohio, the median annual cost reached $110,230 for a semi-private nursing home room and $124,666 for a private room. Assisted living communities averaged $71,700 per year, while non-medical home care reached $77,792 annually.

The survey reflects broader national trends as aging demographics, workforce pressures, and inflation continue to affect care delivery. CareScout collected more than 25,000 provider rates between July and November 2025 to produce the report. The organization offers an interactive tool that allows users to compare long-term care costs by location and care type.
