Harborchase Of Villages Crossing

Harborchase of Villages Crossing is an assisted living facility located at 13517 NE 86th Court in Lady Lake, Florida, within Sumter County. The facility operates with 135 certified beds and provides residential care services to senior populations in the surrounding region, including the greater Villages area. The facility can be reached by phone at (352) 350-5310. As an assisted living facility, Harborchase of Villages Crossing falls under Florida's assisted living licensure and regulatory framework rather than the federal CMS nursing home certification system. Accordingly, overall star ratings, health inspection ratings, staffing ratings, and quality measure ratings issued by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are not applicable to this facility type. Individuals seeking inspection history, complaint records, or licensure status for this facility may consult the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration, which maintains current licensure and survey data for assisted living facilities operating in the state. Assisted living facilities generally operate on a private-pay basis, meaning most residents fund their care through personal assets, private long-term care insurance, or similar financial arrangements. Florida's Medicaid program includes waiver programs that may cover some assisted living costs for eligible individuals, though availability and coverage details vary. Medicare does not typically cover assisted living residential costs, as it is structured primarily around medical and skilled nursing services. Prospective residents and their families are advised to contact the facility directly and consult with a benefits counselor to clarify applicable payment options. Because Harborchase of Villages Crossing is classified as an assisted living facility rather than a skilled nursing facility, direct comparison against Florida statewide CMS star rating averages is not applicable in the same manner as it would be for nursing homes. Florida maintains one of the largest populations of assisted living facilities in the United States, reflecting the significant concentration of older adults residing in the state. Sumter County, where this facility is located, has a notably high proportion of senior residents relative to the general population, largely due to the proximity of the Villages retirement community. This regional context reflects a high local demand for a range of senior living and care options, of which assisted living represents one level within a broader continuum of care.
