Many individuals of all ages in the United States require long-term care services due to disabling conditions and chronic illnesses. Medicaid serves as the main payer for long-term care services nationwide. It provides coverage for these services through various options and in a range of settings, including both institutional care and community-based long-term services and supports (LTSS). These services may encompass assistance with activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing, and eating, in addition to more extensive care provided within nursing facilities.
Given the substantial demand for long-term care services, state government assistance is typically limited to individuals with significantly low income and minimal assets. To ensure financial criteria are satisfied Premier Concierge Care Management partners with reputable estate planning attorneys to help clients seeking asset protection solutions.
Financial need by itself does not automatically qualify someone for long-term care services. Eligibility is determined by assessing both functional and medical needs. Key factors include the applicant’s capacity to perform Activities of Daily Living (such as mobility, bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting), cognitive function, and any behavioral factors. These elements influence how quickly services may be made available.
