Free Elder Law Estate Planning Webinar: Medicaid Asset Protection Planning for Long-Term Care
Hosted by: Julie Rosenzweig, J.D., Attorney at Law
When: February 2 at 5:30 pm & February 8 at 12:00 pm.
Description: When you or your loved one faces admission to a long-term care (LTC) facility, you have many questions: What will it cost? Can my family afford it? If your family looks to Medicaid to cover the cost of long-term care, very specific, daunting rules and regulations apply to the income and asset levels the applicant can have in order to qualify for LTC Medicaid. Even if the applicant qualifies for Medicaid, the state can then seek to recover the cost of care for that individual from that individual’s estate after they die, putting the family home at risk of seizure. Securing proper medical care for you or a loved one shouldn’t impoverish your family. Learn how we can help your family by crafting an asset protection plan that will give you the peace of mind of knowing what you’ve built and grown over your lifetime won’t be lost covering the cost of long-term care.
