Medicaid Planning and Application

If you are age 65 or over and are in need of assistance to help pay for the high costs of medical care, Medicaid benefits may be a solution to ease your financial worries.

Medicaid is a state and federal medical assistance program that can pay for long term care for eligible seniors. Applying for Medicaid can be a tedious and confusing process. Most people are baffled by the rules for Medicaid eligibility. They hear words like “look back”, “spend down” and “transfer penalty”. BLS Eldercare educates families about the intricacies of Medicaid, helps with planning and supports you through the application process. What is the BLS difference?
