Medicaid Mistakes: Know your Rights!

Medicaid is the only public program that covers long-term care. Despite this, many people are told that they aren’t eligible, even when they could be. They are told they have too much income or assets, would need to “spend down” their life savings to qualify, or that they simply can’t remain in their home because they could not get the hours of home care that are needed. It is critical to know the law, and how it can work for you, in order to access this essential benefit.

On the July 6th Life Happens Radio show, attorneys Lou Pierro and Frank Hemming discussed the importance of knowing the law and the facts about Medicaid. They shared real-life stories from clients who they’ve helped qualify for Medicaid after being told previously they would never be able to, and described how you can plan now to be ready if the need arises.
