Gainesville Medicaid Attorney | Ocala Medicaid Lawyer

 

There are many types of Medicaid programs offered in the State of Florida. These programs include medical care and nursing home care for families, children, the elderly, and disabled individuals with limited resources. Each program is unique but many of these programs have asset and resources limits associated with eligibility, as well as restrictions on transfers that are not made for fair market value.

If you are filling out a Medicaid application on your own, it is highly recommended that you allow an attorney to review your application before filing it yourself. After the Medicaid application is filed, it cannot be undone. Oftentimes, people who file their applications without the advice or assistance of a legal professional are unsuccessful. This can lead to disqualifications for years at a time that are difficult to undo. 

When applying for Medicaid, there are numerous questions and uncertainties that arise during this process. The legal professionals at The Miller Elder Law Firm understand the strategies that allow you to qualify for Medicaid and know what to do to get the long-term care situation that you desire.

“We’ve only seen people who’ve been unsuccessful in trying to apply without attorneys. Once Medicaid issues that disqualification period, it’s very difficult to undo.”
