Common Medicaid Mistakes

Friends and family are always quick to share with you how their friend family member or neighbor qualified for nursing home Medicaid. Although it is with good intention in their desire to help, it it often incorrect. There are many rules and regulations that determine whether someone qualifies, or not, for a given benefit. Following the guidance from a non-professional who does not know the entire situation, and all of the current regulations, can often create more problems down the road.

  • Having too many assets at time of application.
  • Gifting money to loved ones.
  • Deeding (gifting) real property to others (family or extended family).
  • “Selling” assets to others (family or friends) at below market value.
  • Depleting assets that could be preserved.
  • Disposing of assets that may not count against you.
  • Not protecting the “Homestead” before entering nursing home.

A few years ago I saw a bus company using the Senior Step to aid their passengers in entering and exiting the motorcoach. Upon examination I went home and ordered the Senior Step to use when conducting tours. It has been an extremely useful investment making getting on and off the bus with ease for my seniors. I would highly recommend anyone in the tour/travel/bus industry in purchasing this product. It is well built and will hold up to rigorous use.

I gave a Senior Shure-step to my mother-in-law who uses it daily. She is mid-80’s and having a hard time getting in and out of the car. The Shure-step makes it much easier and is incredibly sturdy. I would recommend it to anyone needing a secure step stool. It’s also very light and portable.
