Medicaid Planning Updates
For your reference, I am enclosing a Medicaid Reference Checklist as to the Medicaid laws. These numbers change and you should consult the Program Eligibility Manual for verification.
Also enclosed is a copy of the Program Eligibility Manual's life expectancy tables. These numbers have changed since the last time I provided this information to you.
It is important, for potential Medicaid applicants and long term care clients to address and plan for the long term re of a loved one. As the laws have changed over the last three years, I would recommend they meet with someone knowledgeable of these changes.
