Medicaid Solutions
Medicare is Not the Only Option
Many seniors mistakenly believe that Medicare will pay for long-term care expense. In fact, Medicare will only pay for rehabilitation services and only up to 100 days. The first 20 days following a hospital stay of more than 3 days (excluding day of admission and day of discharge) are paid at 100%. The next 80 days have around an OUT OF POCKET expense of $190 per day (the amount is NOT usually covered by Medicare supplement insurance).
After discharge from rehabilitation, you will be responsible for all long-term care charges. Methods of payment include long-term care insurance, privately paying, VA benefits, and Medicaid. Do not assume that you have to spend down to the state mandated $2000 level of assets. There are legal and financial instruments that may allow you to retain more of your assets and most importantly, provide for the needs of your spouse or a dependent or special needs child.
Special Rules for Married Couples
What if your spouse was in the nursing home? How would you meet expenses? How much would you need to meet those needs if your spouse predeceases you? There are special rules for married couples that allow for the state to pay for the care of the first one needing it. We help you understand the rules and regulations that apply to these special situations.
Protect Your Estate
It’s not about how much you have, but how much you keep, grow, and pass on to your loved ones. 43% of those who reach age 65 will eventually need to enter a nursing home. Which means quickly using up their estate to ‘Spend-Down’ to qualify for Medicaid.
Maximize Your Benefits
Common questions when it comes to handling your estate:
- Can you afford to lose your estate to catastrophic illness?
- Have you protected your assets from lawsuits or creditors?
- Will you leave your children and grandchildren without an inheritance?
With proper planning, you can protect your estate from the Medicaid ‘Spend-Down’ as well as creditors and lawsuits, and you can leave an inheritance for your children and grandchildren.
We Are Your Medicaid Source
Let us help you retain as much of your estate as possible. Without a plan, you may be required to spend down to only $2000 . . . not even enough for burial expenses. Don’t let that happen to you and your family.
Our Story
🌸 ABOUT US
A Mother–Daughter Team With a Heart for Seniors
At The Senior Support Co., our story is a simple one: we’re a mother–daughter team who share a calling to care for seniors with dignity, compassion, and the highest standard of service.
🌿 About My Mom — The Heart of Care Planning
With more than 25 years of experience in private senior care, my mother has devoted her life to helping families feel supported, prepared, and never alone. She has managed every detail for her clients—from coordinating private sitters to keeping homes stocked, arranging home health or hospice visits, and helping with medication and daily care needs.
Her greatest achievement isn’t a certification or award.
It’s the countless families who still call her family because of the love, loyalty, and tenderness she gave to their loved ones.
She brings unmatched wisdom and intuition to our team, and she will lead all care planning and care management services with the same grace and dedication she’s shown for decades.
🌿 About Me — Guidance, Advocacy & Medicaid Support
My path has been shaped by over 12 years in banking, finance, regulatory work, and hands-on Medicaid experience. I’ve helped families understand confusing processes, complete Medicaid applications, navigate benefits, and make informed decisions during some of the most overwhelming seasons of life.
My role in our business focuses on:
• Senior & family advising
• Medicaid application support
• Benefit education
• Helping families understand their options with clarity and confidence
🌿 Our Shared Mission
We believe no senior, or their family, should ever feel lost, scared, or unsupported simply because they don’t know where to begin. Knowledge is powerful, and compassion is essential. Together, we bring both.
We are here to be a steady hand, a trusted resource, and a comforting presence when the path forward feels uncertain.
Because at the end of the day, caring for people isn’t just what we do.
It’s who we are.
