Does Baytree Lakeside accept Medicaid?

Yes. Baytree Lakeside is on AHCA's list of ALFs that take the Medicaid assisted living waiver. In Florida that waiver runs through the Statewide Medicaid Managed Care long-term care program.

The waiver pays for care services, not room and board. Being on the list doesn't promise an open Medicaid bed, so ask how many waiver residents it takes right now.

See ALFs that accept Medicaid in St. Petersburg and every Florida ALF on the waiver list, or read how the Medicaid waiver for assisted living works.

Monthly cost at Baytree Lakeside

AHCA doesn't collect prices, so the state record has no rate for Baytree Lakeside. The CareScout Cost of Care Survey 2025 puts the Florida median at $5,610 a month for a private one-bedroom unit, against $6,200 for the US.

Ask for the written rates: what the base fee covers, what each level of care adds and how much notice you get before a rise. Our guide to the cost of assisted living in Florida covers the ways to pay.

Florida rules that apply here

AHCA licenses and inspects every assisted living facility in Florida under Chapter 429 of the Florida Statutes and rule chapter 59A-36. Those rules set who a home may admit, the staff training it needs, how it helps with medication and the 45 days' notice it must give before a discharge.

Our plain guide to Florida assisted living regulations walks through each one, and how to complain to AHCA if something goes wrong.
