Many people do not know that when it comes time to have Medicaid help with your healthcare costs, assets such as your home, life insurance policies and savings can count against you, even if your actual income is limited and within their guidelines. Contacting a Medicaid planning professional, such as an estate planning attorney, to go over your assets can help you to protect your estate, while still getting the healthcare you need. Having an attorney help with Medicaid planning can result in improved care for your loved ones who are in extended or nursing care, while saving what they have worked for.
