Medicaid Planning & Elder Law
In connection with a senior client’s need for long-term care assistance, one of the most difficult realities for them to accept is that in order for them to qualify for Medicaid benefits, which will pay for their nursing home stay, the client will likely be required to spend most of their assets which they have spent a lifetime acquiring.
Medicaid planning can be classified into two categories, crisis planning and pre-planning. Crisis planning occurs when a client is confronted with the sudden and immediate need to be placed into a nursing home. Pre-planning occurs when a client realizes that they may require long-term care in the future and makes a conscience decision to protect their assets by incorporating Medicaid planning into their estate plan.
