Creative and Effective Medicaid Planning Lawyer

What is Medicaid?
Medicaid is a combined federal and state program that assists individuals unable to pay for medical care. If a person is eligible, Medicaid covers all necessary medical services, including long-term nursing care for either skilled nursing care or custodial care.

The Graham Law Office, P.A., located in Boise, Idaho, provides Medicaid planning for you and your loved ones.  With our Medicaid advice and representation, you can be confident that your family members will have the maximum Medicaid coverage possible under the circumstances.

Greater longevity and the high cost of care for prolonged illnesses such as Alzheimer's are threatening more and more middle-class families with impoverishment. Medicaid has become an important resource for the medical and nursing home expenses associated with long-term care.

Medicaid is considered to be one of the most complex laws in the country, made even more so because each state has its own interpretation of the law and its own method of applying the law to its residents. Thus, eligibility rules vary by state. In Idaho, the assets and the income of the person to receive Medicaid are considered for eligibility purposes. Also taken into consideration are the assets of the applicant's spouse and any recent gifts.

Because this area of law is so complex and because a mishandled application can result in denial of benefits, applicants are advised to seek counsel from an Elder Law Attorney with extensive experience in this area.

To help you gain a better understanding of estate planning and Medicaid planning, you and other members of your family can participate in any of our free estate planning workshops.  All workshops are free and are open to the general public.  Please contact us for dates and times, and to learn more about how asset protection and Medicaid planning lawyer Susan M. Graham can help you.
