January 19, 2016 by Larry Parman, Attorney at Law

Sometimes people say "it is never too late." This may be true about some things, but there is such a thing as  closing the stable door after the horse has bolted. You need to keep this in mind when it comes to Medicaid planning in Oklahoma, Kansas or Missouri. Why Medicaid?

Higher Costs for Medicare Recipients in 2013

January 11, 2013 by Larry Parman, Attorney at Law

The challenges are significant when you are trying to get by on a fixed income without having a hefty store of savings to draw from. This is why financial planning lawyers are so adamant about the need to develop a clear-cut path that leads to a comfortable retirement. Many people find they will be working beyond the age when they become eligible to receive Social Security benefits because the numbers simply don't add up. Social Security payouts are quite modest, with the average monthly … [Read more...] about Higher Costs for Medicare Recipients in 2013

Does Medicaid Count Assets in a Living Trust?

December 14, 2012 by Larry Parman, Attorney at Law

Medicare does not pay for an extended stay in a nursing home or assisted living community, and these facilities come with a very high price tag. When you discuss the matter with an elder law attorney you may come away with the realization that you would do well to angle toward Medicaid eligibility as a way to address future long-term care costs. … [Read more...] about Does Medicaid Count Assets in a Living Trust?

Prepare for Health Care Expenses

As laws currently stand, when you reach the age of 65 you will be eligible to receive Medicare assuming you (or your spouse) have worked and paid into the program for at least 10 years.

What this means is that a number of seniors must pay out of pocket if they must enter a nursing home in order to receive rehab services.Due to certain Medicare rules, many people are being placed in a hospital setting not as … [Read more...] about Nursing Home Rehab and Medicare

There is a lot of confusion between Medicare and Medicaid, and though they are both government sponsored healthcare plans, there are some major differences between the two. Medicaid – This plan is sponsored by the federal government and is intended to provide assistance to those with a low-income.
