Medicaid and Medicare Planning

Many people assume that Medicare will simply pay for their long-term care or end-of-life expenses. Unfortunately, this isn’t always the case. Medicare typically only pays for the first 20 days of a nursing home stay before it starts to drop. For the following 80 days, you typically have to pay a copay. After 100 days, Medicare pays zero.

For those who need more than 100 days of long-term care, they risk draining their life savings. 

Medicaid can help.

But to be eligible for Medicaid, you can only have a limited amount of wealth to your name. To meet this requirement, many people end up simply selling their assets. But the good news is that you can receive Medicaid benefits without going broke. 

Medicaid planning can help you by working against this system. It gives you the best of both worlds: It helps you qualify for Medicaid without giving up all of your assets.

A Medicaid planning attorney from Elder Needs Law can help you through the process. We’ll walk you through the possible strategies that could make you eligible for benefits without giving away your money or selling your property. Our elder care lawyers are skilled at saving client assets and we can secure your assets without affecting your Medicaid benefits.

For example, we’ll talk to you about the 60-month look-back period that Medicaid uses when it comes to transferring assets. If you give money or property to your family other than your spouse in those five years, you are ineligible for the program. Many people don’t know about this, so their application gets denied because they transferred funds too recently to meet the requirement. We can help you avoid this by setting up a trust or using other Medicaid planning strategies that allow you to protect your assets within five years..

At Elder Needs Law, we aim to help you get Medicaid without selling all your assets and going broke. Applying to Medicaid is often time-consuming and complicated. That’s why we are here to help you apply and ensure that you remain eligible.
