MEDICAID PLANNING GROUP
Medicaid Planning Group was established in 2003 to help educate individuals on the daunting task of applying for MassHealth Long-Term Care. Our knowledge and expertise is unique and the best available in the Commonwealth.
We study the MassHealth rules and regulations to ensure you have all the options to best fit your families needs. We work efficiently to guarantee everything is completed within the MassHealth time frames.
How can Medicaid Planning Group, Inc. help you?
Families come to us at various stages of needing MassHealth. Whether an individual is already in a skilled nursing home or preparing to enter one eventually, we can tailor a plan for them to meet asset eligiblity when they're ready. Once the family is asset eligible we can also assist with the application process.
Our many years of MassHealth experience will help guide you through the system. We know what MassHealth requires and will facilitate the process through to completion. Our services are personal and confidential.
SERVICES
Before entering a nursing home:
If you are trying to plan ahead for MassHealth, we will tell you the things you can be spending your money on now to avoid MassHealth penalties. Many people are under the assumption they are not allowed to spend their own money because the state will penalize them. That is not true. You will get a spenddown plan with our asset assessment.
After entering a nursing home:
We help you spend your assets down on the appropriate items and develope a timeline to submit the application. You do owe the private rate to a facility for every day you are not asset eligible. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT YOU CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY FOR ASSISTANCE TO AVOID ANY LAPSE IN COVERAGE.
You started the application on your own:
We can assist with finalizing the application. Most often this happens when a family continues to get denied and needs assistance with an appeal for one reason or another. We handle appeals as long as they are NOT regarding a legal matter, like a trust issue. WE ARE NOT ATTORNEYS.
Eligibility
A single individual is eligible when all their assets are below $2,000.00. A married couple is eligible when all their combined assets are below $150,640.00. When you leave our consult you will have a step-by-step guide to reduce your assets without jeopardizing MassHealth benefits. You also receive a detailed list of documents needed to process the application. Failure to provide the correct documentation to the state will result in a denial.
Yearly Reviews
After an individual has received MassHealth the family will have to complete a yearly review. This is an easier process, but one that is still very important. Medicaid Planning Group can either show you how to complete the application for a onetime fee or you can hire us to complete the application every year for a higher fee. (See the fee section for an overview of our fees.)
