How Can We Help With Your Medicaid?
People may need Medicaid assistance to support their care at certain times in life. A common example is someone with income or assets exceeding Medicaid’s allowable limits; however, a medical situation arises that requires short or long-term care. This could leave them spending most of their hard-earned income and assets on treatment before Medicaid assistance will be approved.
To qualify for Medicaid, an applicant’s income is beholden to a certain threshold. In short, you can only make so much per month. This prevents many from getting the care that is really needed, without going broke.
The Law Office Polly Tatum works diligently with our clients to get them approved for Medicaid while safeguarding their assets.
No matter your income or assets, there are options.
Our team of Medicaid Lawyers is skilled in assisting individuals to get approved for Medicaid to be able to get the care they need.
