Medicaid Benefits |<\/a> Let\u2019s say Dad is getting on in years. He gets around the house okay, until one day he takes a fall inside the home. After a trip to the hospital, he\u2019s moved to a rehabilitation facility, where he will work toward going home again. He has saved a bit during his lifetime, so he\u2019s not stressed financially. But then things don\u2019t progress so quickly, or complications arise. Medicare is paying for the first 21 days, but the facility staff is saying he may need rehab or skilled nursing care beyond the Medicare coverage. Faced with a bill over $5,000 each month, Dad\u2019s lifetime of saving could start to evaporate quickly if things drag on. What if he never goes home again? Will he need to sell his house of 40 years?<\/span><\/p>\nThere are families around Tampa Bay that face this scenario every week. What would you do?<\/span><\/p>\nThe Medicaid Option<\/b><\/p>\n
Because you want the best for Dad, you explore Medicaid assistance. This federal financial assistance program is administered by the states, and it has a set of eligibility requirements. You heard from a friend that there are asset limits, so you think Dad does not qualify. You begin to worry that he will use up his money in a couple of months and won\u2019t have anything left. Will he have to lose everything to finally qualify?<\/span><\/p>\nThe Asset Protection Solution<\/b><\/p>\n
The amount of questions and number of uncertainties can paralyze a family into inaction. However, a skilled elder law attorney can provide guidance for this, or any number of similar situations. The answers may surprise you, and give Dad a chance to get quality care and preserve a portion of his savings for the next generation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nIf you\u2019d like assistance in navigating the process toward receiving Medicaid benefits, contact <\/span>Mortellaro Law<\/span><\/a> today.
