In order to qualify for Medicaid benefits you should first speak to an attorney who is knowledgeable in the area of Medicaid eligibility. The Medicaid application form is a complex legal document. The Medicaid application form asks many complicated questions. Your answers to these questions will determine whether you can obtain Medicaid benefits.
I understand how difficult it is for people to deal with the complications involved in making an application for nursing home care under the Medicaid Law. That is the reason why I represent my clients throughout the entire Medicaid application process. For each of my clients I complete the Medicaid application. My office also presents the completed Medicaid application at the Medicaid office of the County Department of Social Services.
The Medicaid Department requires a face to face interview at the Medicaid office. My office presents the Medicaid application at the Medicaid office on my client's behalf at the face-to-face interview. During that face-to-face interview the Medicaid worker asks questions that affect your eligibility for Medicaid benefits. I answer these questions for you. Further, if there are any additional written questions asked by the Medicaid Department, I answer those questions as well. My clients do not need to appear at the Medicaid Department.
Too many people lose everything that they have worked a lifetime to acquire - their life savings, bank accounts, car and house - because they did not have an attorney knowledgeable in Medicaid law prepare their Medicaid application and represent them at the face-to-face interview at the Medicaid office.
You have to know your rights under the Medicaid law before you enter the Medicaid office. I have had long experience in dealing with the Medicaid law and all of its complications. I would be happy to talk to you further, on the telephone or in person, regarding the Medicaid application process.
No one knows when the need for nursing home care may come. It may occur when you are least prepared to defend yourself against its high costs - costs that can wipe out a lifetime of savings. That's why planning for such a possibility is so necessary. It is easier to save your house and savings if you act before the possibility of nursing home care strikes. It's never too late to arrange to save your assets, but each day you delay makes it harder for you to take advantage of certain important legal rights under the Medicaid Law. Time delays are a definite advantage to the Medicaid Department, not to you.
