Medicaid, Elder Law, Long Term Care, Nursing Home Planning

Areas of Practice

Medicaid is a federal program which provides medical care to those who cannot afford it. It is funded jointly by the states and the federal government, and is currently administered at the county level.

One month's care at a nursing home in Monroe County can cost upwards of $10,000 (ten thousand dollars)! Therefore, many inpatients of nursing homes turn to Medicaid to pay for services they may not be able to afford personally.

There is a great deal of planning that can be done to maximize the assets available for a spouse living at home, as well as possibly for children and other family members.

When you apply for Medicaid, you will be asked to provide five (5) years' worth of financial records, as well as many other documents. We have experience assisting our clients in navigating the Medicaid system, both in Rochester and in surrounding counties.
