| Asset protection is a major component of Chronic Care Advocacy. A 2012 New York Life study found that the national average cost for skilled nursing care is $91,980 a year. In the Washington, D.C. area, the average annual costs for skilled nursing care often exceeds $100,000 annually. Without proper guidance, most individuals quickly exhaust their assets while being unaware that under the federal and state rules assets can be preserved in every single case.
We will help you determine the best and most advantageous way to pay for care while at the same time protecting your assets. We will:
 |
Review public and private resources and their eligibility requirements—including Medicare, Medicaid, veteran’s benefits, auxiliary grants, and other programs—to determine if our client qualifies for such assistance. |
|
Confer on and negotiate costs of care with senior providers on your behalf. |
|
Electronically scan, sort, and organize all client information for reference and benefits applications. |
|
Review asset titling and beneficiary designations and update as necessary. |
|
Assist clients in securing all personal and financial documentation as necessary. |
|
Preserve wealth for self, spouse, and family. |
|
File benefits applications with complete supporting documentation. |
|
Minimize prohibitive cost of care in the Washington Metro area. |
|
Analyze gifts, transfers, and possible periods of ineligibility for public benefits. |
|
Assist in public benefit appeals. |
We are devoted to securing the best possible care for our clients and helping them protect their assets.
