Medicaid & Medicare Planning

It is estimated that almost 50% of Americans will eventually spend some time in a skilled nursing facility. In Florida, the average cost of a nursing home is $10,000 - $11,000 per month. These high expenses can quickly drain your savings and investment accounts without careful estate planning.

Elder Needs Law can help you safeguard your assets from the high costs of skilled nursing care and related long-term care expenses. Medicaid planning is critical to offer security for you or your loved one while preserving assets for your family.

Many Americans don't have and cannot afford long-term care insurance for nursing homes or continuing care facilities. Also, Medicare only pays for about 100 days of nursing home costs. However, with a careful estate plan, it is possible to use Medicaid to pay for your nursing home care while still preserving a legacy for your family.

Medicaid only allows you to have $2,000 of countable assets. Some assets are not included, such as a home (in some cases), a car, personal belongings, wedding rings, and medical equipment.

A key to Medicaid estate planning is understanding the 60-month look-back period for financial transfers. If you transfer to someone other than your spouse during those 60 months, you may be disqualified from receiving Medicaid.

People with significant assets need to consult their estate planning attorney carefully. You should begin Medicaid planning early to save as much of the estate as possible.

The attorneys at Elder Needs Law are skilled and experienced with Medicaid planning and can ensure the timely transfer of assets to preserve your estate.
