Do you anticipate a loved one will need nursing home care in the future? Has your spouse or family member already been transferred to a nursing home or rehab facility? Medicaid laws are some of the most complex rules to navigate, and Medicaid lawyers routinely handle these cases. There are ways to preserve assets in order to supplement care if Medicaid benefits are needed. Under certain circumstances, the Medicaid laws allow assets to be transferred to family members or special trusts.
While it is best to plan ahead for Medicaid qualification, there are ways to preserve assets even if your loved one is already in the nursing home or assisted living facility.
