Medicaid:
Navigating Complexity with Expertise
Many people don’t know if or how they can qualify for long term Care Medicaid, and the application process can feel overwhelming! But we’re here to make it easier for you and your family. At Sammartino & Sultan Law Group, we know all the ins and outs of Medicaid and will guide you through every step, so you get all the benefits you deserve.
Making Medicaid Less Confusing
Medicaid eligibility can seem like a puzzle with its strict income and asset thresholds that vary by state. Our experienced attorneys are your expert problem-solvers. Our comprehensive Medicaid eligibility services include:
- Taking a Close Look at Your Finances:
We review all your income, savings, investments, and property to spot anything that could get in the way of qualifying for Medicaid, then come up with solutions that fit your situation.
- Finding Hidden Opportunities:
We know the rules inside and out, so we can find resources and exemptions you might not know about—like special needs trusts or protections for spouses—to help you qualify without losing what matters most.
- Smart Asset Planning:
We help you set up things like Medicaid-friendly annuities or trusts, so you can meet Medicaid’s requirements and still protect your savings for yourself and your family.
Planning Ahead for Peace of Mind
We focus on solutions that can help you:
- Get access to the care you need, especially long-term care, by helping you sort out healthcare paperwork, powers of attorney, and insurance options.
- Protect your hard-earned money from risks like taxes, creditors, or lawsuits, so you can pass it on to your loved ones just the way you want.
Helping You Through the Application
We’re with you every step of the way:
-
Paperwork Help: We walk you through the Medicaid forms and make sure everything is filled out right and on time.
-
Gathering Documents: We help you collect all the paperwork you need—like bank statements and medical records—so your application is complete and strong.
-
Speeding Up the Process: Our experience helps prevent delays and boosts your chances of getting approved quickly.
