If it is determined that you exceed the amount of income that is needed for Medicare long-term care services, you may qualify with a Qualified Income Trust (QIT). This QIT allows individuals (who may otherwise not qualify for Medicaid) to rely on Medicaid benefits. Recipients are required to pay/transfer a specific amount of their income into a separate trust account for the full duration that they receive Medicaid benefits. To learn more about how a Qualified Income Trust works, you should contact a Medicaid attorney in Florida.
