Most people believe you must be impoverished to qualify for Medicaid benefits.
This is a common myth regarding Medicaid qualifications. You do not have to be poor to qualify for Medicaid, however, you have to meet Medicaid eligibility requirements. We help financially educate and prepare our clients for short and long term care so that their only focus is to age gracefully, with Respect, Honor, & Dignity.
Our Medicaid Planning & Eligibility services provide an alternative solution to traditional Medicaid planning with much lower fees. Traditional Medical planning services can cost near $8,000 to $15,000 to retain an Elder law attorney. We offer Medicaid-compliant planning strategies, using a sliding scale fee formula to help make Our services affordable for everyone! Our Medicaid Advocates are Medicaid policy trained, to ensure all of Our planning strategies are Medicaid compliance.
Starting with a free phone consultation, we will assess you and/or your loved ones' short/long term care needs and discuss what services and how our services will be of your benefit. We work closely with you and your family to build a long term care plan. There are circumstances where you would need an Elder law attorney, if we are unable to meet your Medicaid Planning needs, we have an array of Elder law attorneys we can provide referral to.
Because of the complexities of Medicaid, we do not recommend you attempt to "spend down", move or transfer any of your assets without the direction of your advocate or elder law attorney.
***Do not give away, sell or transfer/move any of your assets to anyone without proper guidance.***
