Most families do not realize how complicated and detailed a Medicaid Application is.  Similar to tax planning or planning for bankruptcy, navigating the system effectively without professional guidance is difficult and risky.  Even a small mistake can cost an individual thousands of dollars. Further,  if Medicaid coverage is denied because of a mistake on the application, this can place a child, who signed as responsible party, at risk of being sued over a nursing home bill   At the Murray Firm, we assist you in completing the application and give guidance on the proper way to spend down assets most effectively to minimize additional out of pocket costs down the road.
