When caring for an elder you want to make sure that not only do they have the care they need, but that they will be able to pay for that care in the long term. Whether that care is in their own home, in an assisted living facility or in a skilled nursing facility those costs can mount up quickly. There are many resources and agencies that provide funding for that care, but you need to get informed in order to become eligible.
This is the second part of our series. In this show Rebecca L. Berg an elder law attorney with Berg & Associates, continues to explain the seven different ways an elder can qualify in order to be eligible for Medicaid. She also describes how your elder can keep certain assets while still qualifying for Medicaid benefits. Preserving assets the elder may already have is critical in order for money to be available for that care in the long term.
