Medi-Cal Planning Is About More Than Filling Out an Application

Medi-Cal is California's Medicaid program and can provide important long-term-care benefits for eligible individuals. But qualifying for benefits is only one part of the planning process.

A thoughtful elder-law plan should consider your income, assets, home, existing estate plan, family circumstances, decision-making documents, anticipated care needs, and the possibility of future Medi-Cal estate recovery.

Depending on your circumstances, we can assist with:

• Medi-Cal eligibility and asset review
• Long-term-care planning before care is needed
• Crisis Medi-Cal planning when care is already needed
• Lawful asset preservation and restructuring strategies
• Planning involving the family home
• Spousal impoverishment protections for married couples
• Medi-Cal share-of-cost planning
• Nursing-home and skilled-nursing Medi-Cal planning
• In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) planning
• Assisted Living Waiver considerations
• Medi-Cal application and redetermination guidance
• Powers of attorney and incapacity planning
• Trust and estate-plan reviews for aging clients
• Medi-Cal estate recovery planning

Every family is different. The appropriate strategy depends on the type of care needed, when it may be needed, how assets are owned, marital status, income, prior transfers, and the client's broader estate-planning goals.
