The cost of Long Term Care, whether provided at home, in assisted living, or in a nursing home, is high and getting higher. Fortunately, the government has two benefit programs which can help pay the cost. Unfortunately, they have very complicated, and unforgiving, qualification requirements.
Our ability to guide clients through the maze of eligibility and qualification for government benefits for Long Term Care (Medicaid and / or Aid and Attendance) is one of the reasons clients keep coming back to our office and referring their family and friends. We have also represented other law firms and business in these matters. We have also advised other attorneys, CPAs, and financial advisors in these areas. At The Heritage Law Group we have over thirty years of experience in designing plans to acquire assistance with long term care costs.
• For those in need of nursing home level care (in the home or in a nursing home), often the most financially advantageous program is Medicaid.
• For those in need of a lower level of care, we will often review eligibility for the program known as Aid and Attendance.
Our Attorneys work together to design and implement Long Term Care plans. It is rare that we find an issue that we have not seen before. We also have paralegals who have years of experience in helping clients implement the plan our attorneys design.
