Elder Law & Estate Planning
Medicaid Planning
Planning for long-term care often means planning for circumstances that require home health care, or nursing home care. The Medicaid Institutional Care Program (ICP) is a state/federal program that pays most nursing home costs. The applicant must meet certain medical and financial criteria. The financial requirements are based on the "asset test" and are different for single people and for married people.
The largest issue most people face is that you must meet strict financial guidelines in order to qualify. However, should an individual qualify, Medicaid will pay for up to 100% of their nursing home costs.
We can help safeguard your life savings using a contract for services, income-producing assets, Medicaid asset protection trusts or pooled income trusts, and understanding the 5-year lookback rules and income resource allowance.
Application Appeals
Even though programs exist to help people pay for the care they need, it does not mean that the process of obtaining financial assistance is easy. Not only must you meet the eligibility guidelines, but your applications must be completed properly so that your request is not denied.
You may have been denied assistance for a number of reasons, even if you were eligible. We will take a look at your complete financial picture to determine whether you should appeal the denial or restructure your affairs and reapply.
Our Attorneys will help determine the best approach for you and guide you through the process.
It's Never Too Late
Whether you are planning ahead for a potential need for long-term care in the future, or have an imminent issue that is draining your savings and creating a financial strain already, it is important to remember that it is never too late to get help.
Your loved one may qualify for assistance even though they are already living in a Nursing Home, or receiving home health care.
