We examine the process of planning for long-term care with your estate plan. Long-term care in Rock Island can be very expensive and because of this, people rely on Medicaid to cover the expense of long-term care.
However, applying for Medicaid in Rock Island requires individuals to spend or "draw down" most of your assets. Medicaid planning using irrevocable trusts ensures that you can retain your home and possessions to pass onto your loved ones while still qualifying for Medicaid.
In this article, our Rock Island Medicaid planning attorneys discuss the types of assets that are transferable within the Medicaid 5 year look back period.
Transfers for less than fair value within 5 years prior to applying for Medicaid can delay your eligibility for Medicaid benefits to pay for long-term care though some transfers are permissible within this 5 year look-back.
