Protect Your Assets With Medicaid Planning

Unfortunately, many people assume that Medicaid is only for the working poor. In fact, millions of senior citizens qualify for Medicaid to assist them with their long-term care. This includes assisted living or nursing home care. Medicaid is a federal health care program provides assistance to senior citizens and adults with disabilities. They require a special home or living care. You’ve worked your whole life to save up for retirement and have paid into Medicaid taxes. The average American cannot afford even a few years of nursing home care when they reach their late 70s or 80s. The average cost of a nursing home in Florida is over $91,000 per year. However, with careful Medicaid planning with your attorney, you can save hundreds of thousands of dollars. You can create a special healthcare trust that protects your assets. This will allow you to take advantage of high-quality health care and living assistance for years to come. Even if you haven’t reached the age to be in a nursing home, we encourage our clients to start planning at least three to five years out. Our attorneys are proficient at answering questions and relaying all of the relevant information that you need.
