NEED TO KNOW NURSING HOME/MEDICAID PLANNING

Medicaid Coverage is About Details

One of the most common reasons people are denied Medicaid coverage for long-term or in-home care is because they have too much money or income.

Application Timing is Critical

Medicaid does a five-year look back on your finances to determine eligibility. This makes pre-planning especially important. Even if you don’t think you will need long-term care this year or next, but maybe 10 years down the road, being active today will help you avoid significant expenses and future losses for yourself and your family.

Strategies for Success

Avoiding the five-year look back is key, and a qualified planner can help you restructure your assets to qualify for Medicaid. Elder Law of Georgia professionals understand how to do this, including by:

  • Transferring property into an irrevocable trust to avoid the five-year look back
  • Establishing a trust to provide for a spouse or disabled child
  • Transferring assets and money to loved ones
