2024 national cost benchmark
These national averages come from a representative survey of more than 32,000 long-term-care providers. They are planning context, not Southern Ocean Center's price, a quote, evidence of availability, or an insurance-covered amount. Room, care needs, fees, payer, and location can materially change cost.

Pricing on Seniorly
Seniorly may show a starting rate, room-level prices, or an advisor-assisted estimate for this facility. Seniorly is an independent referral marketplace, and its listed amount is not a quote; final cost can vary by room and care needs.
CMS cost-report accounting rate
From its public CMS cost report, Southern Ocean Center takes in an average of about $393 per resident-day across all payers — Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay combined. That is a facility-wide accounting average, not a private-pay quote, and it is not a monthly price: Medicare short-stay rehab is billed at a far higher daily rate than long-term custodial care, so the day-rate reflects payer mix as much as price.
