Medicaid Crisis Planning is necessary when your loved one is already in a nursing home and has run out of private funds to pay for care.
Or, they have experienced an injury or illness, like a stroke, that will require the need for long-term care in the immediate future, but they do not have the money to pay for the expensive costs of a skilled nursing facility.
In these cases, the individual has an immediate need to develop and implement a Medicaid eligibility plan.
