Medicaid Planning
| What is Medicaid Planning? |
| Medicaid Planning helps families who are seeking the best nursing facility care for their loved ones. The law allows some families to preserve a handful of assets while still qualifying for Medicaid coverage for the costs of the nursing home. Recently, states like Texas have begun Medicaid Estate Recovery Programs, which are designed to pay back to the states the costs of Medicaid through recovery of the recipient's homestead. There are some ways to avoid recovery, so it's wise to get legal advice when facing Medicaid Estate Recovery.
Also, many people have difficulty navigating the bureaucratic waters of the Medicaid application process. Assistance from an attorney can help smooth the process. |
