Medicaid

Enrolling in Medicaid is a complex and daunting task. A single mistake on the application can lead to a denial of benefits and once the application has been filed, it cannot be withdrawn. If you are anything like most people, this is probably more than a little shocking.

For seniors, and their family members assisting them in the application process, one of the more complicated aspects of preparing the Medicaid application, is preparing to be financially eligible. Few people realize that approval is not guaranteed, and requires a review of the applicant's finances over the previous five years. To further complicate matters, there is no common sense involved in the determination of which expenses are considered perfectly fine and which will result in a penalty, which can effectively mean a denial of benefits. Paying for professional services, such as a lawyer and/or an accountant, is permitted and can be extremely helpful in the application process, due to the strict financial requirements. Many individuals make the mistake of thinking that the applicant can just give their funds to family or charity, but that is incorrect. Doing so will almost certainly result in a denial of benefits.
