Medicaid Planning

We assist clients in obtaining Medicaid benefits when a client or their loved one is in need of Assisted Living Facility or nursing home care.

Medicaid Planning

Medicaid is a dual federal and state program that aids older and/or disabled persons to obtain government assistance for a variety of personal needs. Unfortunately, obtaining these benefits is quite a challenge as a result of the multitude of rules that must be followed and forms that must be completed in order to get them.

At Wallace & Packer, PL, we work daily as a liaison between clients and the Florida Department of Children and Families in order to assist clients in obtaining Medicaid benefits when a client or their loved one is in need of Assisted Living Facility or nursing home care. We also assist clients with every step of the Medicaid application process, including the completion of the Medicaid application and the allocation of their assets so that they will not adversely affect their Medicaid eligibility. Often times, our elders are eligible for Medicaid benefits but do not know it or are not willing to go through the inconvenience of applying, and instead have decided to private or self pay the need for Assisted Living Facility or Nursing Home care. If you are private or self-paying for Assisted Living Facility or Nursing Home care either yourself or for a loved one, you should contact our office immediately to find out if Medicaid can reduce or eliminate this financial burden.
