Crisis Medicaid Planning: What Everyone Needs to Know

People with greater wealth often assume that Medicaid planning does not apply to their situation. However, families frequently underestimate future long-term care costs, and unforeseen medical needs may arise where a family member could benefit from Medicaid. By implementing crisis planning strategies, families can understand how to safeguard their assets within five years of a family member accessing Medicaid benefits.

In this interactive webinar, Focus’s Chief Planning Officer Jeffrey Levine will review why financially secure families should be aware of long-term care costs and how program benefits could play a role in their planning.

In this session, he’ll cover:

• The impact of long-term care costs on individuals and their families.

• Key features and provisions for Medicaid benefits and eligibility.

• The financial impact and associated penalties that could arise when receiving Medicaid benefits.

• Strategies to protect assets while accessing Medicaid benefits.
