Nursing-Home Medicaid Applications
When a parent needs a nursing home, the Medicaid application is long and unforgiving. Ben gathers and organizes your papers, completes the official application, and answers the county's follow-up requests until it is approved.
The 60-month look-back: Medicaid reviews the last five years of bank activity, so every statement and large transaction has to be accounted for. Ben helps you collect the records and puts them in order.
What you will need
- Photo ID, Social Security and Medicare/insurance cards
- 60 months of statements for every bank and investment account
- Proof of income (Social Security, pension)
- Deeds or leases, and a list of life-insurance policies
- Don't have everything? Ben tells you what comes first
