Of course, you’ve heard of the 10 commandments. In this office, the 11th commandment is:

Never, ever file a Medicaid application until you are sure that the Medicaid applicant qualifies!

Once you apply for Medicaid, you will lose the opportunity to protect your assets. Do not throw away the flexibility that exists prior to an application! If your assets show that you have more than the allowable amount, you will be required to spend-down those assets. Call us first before completing any Medicaid application! We can tell you within hours and sometimes minutes whether or not we can save you money. You will lose money and flexibility if you file for Medicaid too soon or too late. Let us calculate the exact date that the Medicaid application should be submitted. We can usually determine the amount of money that you will save and the appropriate date that the Medicaid application should be filed. We normally submit the Medicaid application 60 days prior to the date that we believe the MA will be eligible for benefits.

A Medicaid application requires a mountain of paperwork, and is then submitted to an inefficient government processing system, which makes filing an application for public benefits an enormous project. We have developed systems to make your life easier. Our team knows the rules and knows how to present the information in a way that it can be easily understood by Medicaid officials. We will detail all of the strategies that our clients have used to qualify for governmental benefits while safeguarding assets. We will highlight and justify with appropriate legal support the reasons why our recommendations are appropriate.

When applying for Medicaid or other public benefits, there are often many hidden potholes, obstacles, and dangerous curves in the road. We understand these problems, as we have driven this road before — and we are prepared to address them and solve them. We will represent you through the application and all face-to-face meetings with Medicaid caseworkers or higher-level officials.

We charge a package fee for our services. You will not receive hourly billing; rather, you will know right from the start the total cost involved in our representation. You will have the assurance that we will represent you through any and all necessary appeals without any additional charges.
