Navigating eligibility for
Medical Assistance can be confusing and frustrating. As advocates, we are
often tasked with providing the best strategies for clients to maximize the
assets they are allowed to keep and still obtain eligibility for Medical
Assistance benefits.
In this CLE we will:
1. Review methods
for clients to reduce assets to obtain financial eligibility for Medical
Assistance and learn strategies that increase financial security for the
community spouse
2. Detail the difference between permissible and
impermissible asset transfers
3. Discuss scenarios when spouses can retain
additional, income producing assets and how to advocate for your clients through
the application process
