MOCJ accepts Medicare and Medicaid residents and offers both private and semi-private suites. We accept both the rich and poor. As a not-for-profit organization; we do not turn away anybody, because of inability to pay. We accept whatever amount the individual person can afford. We are here to serve with love.
