MEDICAID QUALIFICATION

South Florida Medicaid Attorneys

The Florida Medicaid system is the largest payor of skilled nursing home monthly expenses. Unfortunately, the eligibility rules for Medicaid Benefits are vast and complex.

We utilize existing law to convert a client’s “countable assets” into “non-countable assets” so our clients can preserve their family’s wealth and still qualify for Medicaid Benefits before their assets are depleted.

We provide the guidance on navigating the confusing and complex Medicaid regulations like” The 5-Year Look Back Period; Maximum Asset Limits; Maximum Income Limits; Disqualification Penalties; Payback Provisions; Medicaid Estate Recovery Act; and more.

We also assist with nursing home and facility resident rights and help file nursing home claims. Contact your South Florida Medicaid attorneys at Bakalar and Associate’s, P.A. today to determine your available options.

Michael Bakalar was a huge help by spending time educating me and explaining the procedure and that made me feel very comfortable in such an overwhelming process.
