This change is a result of an aging population living much beyond normal retirement age as well as costs of long term care skyrocketing. As a result, in order to address these needs families must consider the cost of long term care and how they are going to pay for it.

"AWARD WINNING PENNSYLVANIA ELDER-LAW ATTORNEYS"
Using an often proprietary approach, our Elder-Law attorneys use a vast knowledge, understanding, and deep respect of the elderly to help our elderly clients obtain the highest quality care at the lowest possible cost, which typically involves sheltering and protecting assets from the disastrous financial consequences of nursing home care and becoming eligible to have Medicaid and/or Veterans Aid and Attendance benefits pay for the appropriate level of care, whether it's home health care, assisted living care or nursing home care.
Unfortunately, Medicaid eligibility rules are the most complex and confusing maze of legal rules in existence. The United States Supreme Court has called the Medicaid laws “an aggravated assault on the English language" and the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has called the Medicaid Act "one of the most tortuous".
Veteran’s Aid and Attendance rules are also exceedingly complicated and often treacherous to navigate.
Let our Elder-Law attorneys provide you with expert and experienced asset protection planning and in-depth representation in connection with Medicaid and Veterans Aid and Attendance benefits so you don’t spend your entire life savings on long-term care and unnecessarily jeopardize the financial security of your family.
Our proprietary approach reviews each client individually and each plan is tailored to the specific needs and goals of that client. Our client review and plans revolve around 3 tiers. Each tier is utilized based on the needs and goals of our clients:
Tier 1 is “Incapacity Planning” — done to avoid the disastrous legal and financial consequences that often accompany incapacity. Tier 1 Incapacity protection lays the foundation for all of our higher levels of planning, and is often the starting point for new clients, because it provides the simplest, quickest, and least costly way to become a client.
Tier 2 is our proprietary ElderCare Living Trust™ Asset Protection Trust, designed to shelter and protect your assets from the disastrous financial consequences of nursing home care as well as probate. divorce and lawsuits. The ElderCare Living Trust™ provides general asset protection immediately upon funding, and Medicaid asset protection five years after funding. You are a candidate for Level 2 Planning provided you are living independently and have no significant health problems that are likely to require nursing home care within the next five years. For more information about the ElderCare Living Trust™, click here.
Tier 3 is our Benefits-Focused Asset Protection, which provides comprehensive Medicaid Asset Protection and Life Care Planning, including completion and filing of the Medicaid application and all documents and actions required to obtain Medicaid. If appropriate, Tier 3 includes Veterans Benefits Planning and the filing of a Veterans Aid and Attendance Pension application at no charge. Under Tier 3, our Elder-Law attorneys are available to provide all necessary and appropriate asset protection planning and research, asset protection documents; asset protection strategies, advice, and expertise; and all other services necessary to achieve the appropriate and desired goals. Tier 3 includes consultations between you and our elder-law attorneys and staff as necessary to design and implement an asset protection plan consistent with your needs, goals, and desires, and to carry out the plan to completion prior to our filing for Medicaid and/or Veterans Pension benefits.
