More Information - Medi-Cal Asset Protection

What Is Medi-Cal Asset Protection?

Medi-Cal asset protection is a tool you can use to hold the assets in the form of a trust. This trust qualifies you for long-term care benefits and prevent “Medi-Cal Estate Recovery.” Setting up this trust early can help pay for nursing home costs as well as protect your assets.

Medi-Cal asset protection is especially important for individuals who have a spouse entering a nursing home. Our law firm can help file a petition in court to transfer assets and income of the spouse entering a nursing home to the spouse who is staying at home. This may also help qualify the spouse in the nursing home for Medi-Cal benefits.
