Listen in as host Steve Kuker, President of Senior Care Consulting, visits with Samantha Shepherd, Founder and Managing Partner with the Shepherd Elder Law Group. Samantha explains what Medicaid is, how to qualify for Medicaid, and why Medicaid qualification is much more complicated for a married couple. What is the “look-back” period, what qualifies as a “gift”, and is there an associated Medicaid penalty for a gift? Tune in to find out! Steve and Samantha do some myth-busting and Samantha reviews 2 major opportunities for families to protect their assets. She also explains why a “Care Contract” is so important to have in place prior to paying your adult child to provide care for you. Spoiler alert: without a Care Contract, every dollar paid could be considered a gift and cause a major Medicaid penalty! #SeniorCare #SeniorCareLive #SeniorCareConsulting #SeniorLiving #KansasCitySeniorCare #SeniorCarePlacement #SeniorCareAdvisor #Franchise #SeniorCareFranchise #VA #VAAidandAttendance #LongTermCare #AssistedLiving #Medicaid #Medicare #KansasCity #HomeCare #Dementia #Alzheimers #Hospice #PalliativeCare #HomeCare #ElderLaw #EstatePlanning
