Asset Spend Down Requirements in Order to Qualify for Medicaid and Other Benefits

Assist your clients in qualifying for Medicaid with these methods and strategic planning.

Many clients of an elder law practice encounter the increasing cost of quality health care across the nation, resulting in needed assistance to cover the bills. Medicaid will often be the payer source clients turn to. This material provides an elder law practitioner with a toolbox for assisting clients with the Medicaid application process. Additionally, this topic also explains the spend-down method of planning for Medicaid and long-term care. Many clients have a timeframe within the Medicaid rules to plan adequately for the care that they may want and need. This information is critical for attorneys practicing in elder law and engaging in public benefits planning.
