LiveWell Connecticut holds certification under both Medicare and Medicaid programs, meaning the facility is authorized to bill these federal and state insurance programs for covered services. Medicare typically covers short-term skilled nursing care following a qualifying hospital stay, subject to specific eligibility requirements and duration limits. Medicaid coverage is available to eligible residents who meet financial and clinical criteria as determined by Connecticut state guidelines. Individuals should consult directly with the facility and relevant agencies to verify current coverage details and availability.
When compared to national benchmarks, LiveWell Connecticut's overall 5-star rating is notably above the national average of 3.0 stars. Both the staffing and quality measure components also exceed the national average, while the health inspection rating of 4 stars remains above average as well. These ratings are drawn from publicly available CMS data and are intended to provide a standardized reference point for comparing nursing facilities across the country. Ratings are updated periodically by CMS and may change as new inspection and reporting data become available. Prospective residents and their families are encouraged to review current CMS data and contact the facility directly for the most up-to-date information.

About CMS Star Ratings
CMS assigns 1–5 star ratings to Medicare and Medicaid-certified nursing homes based on three domains: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. The overall rating is a weighted composite.
A 5-star overall rating does not guarantee excellence in every domain — inspect each sub-rating independently. Data is updated quarterly.
