Elder Law NEWS - April 2022

Hello,

In 2022, change remains constant. But, as it applies to elder care, some shifts are favorable, while others could directly impact the financial stability and level of care your loved one receives. 

In recent news, President Biden has proposed major nursing home reforms – the most extensive in decades and chose to give a “makeover” to a controversial Medicare initiative instead of ending the program that benefits thousands of Americans.

According to a recent survey, despite these pushes from the current administration, the cost for long-term healthcare and related home health aide services has experienced the sharpest increase in years.

If you’re having trouble navigating the complex topic of elder care and Medicare planning, our compassionate and experienced team is here to help. So please reach out today to begin the conversation!

If you or a loved one were hospitalized and put under observation status, don’t worry – you have the right to appeal. The CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) recently announced that beneficiaries could appeal a hospital’s decision to assign observation status. However, Medicare won’t be helping with the expense of Rapid At Home COVID tests. If you’re worried or concerned about a loved one who may be unable to take care of themselves, we help clarify the process involved with determining legal incompetence.

Do you have more questions or concerns? Trust us to assist in navigating the complicated legal landscape, whether you need help with elder law, succession planning, estate planning, asset protection, Medicaid planning, veterans benefits, or Social Security. Please get in touch today!

If you’re among the growing numbers of caregivers, each day that passes brings an increased chance of needing long-term care. Unfortunately, for many senior citizens, that means living in a nursing home or other type of care facility which could be understaffed or under stress due to COVID-19 or various other reasons. 

If you want more information on a nursing home you’re considering, the Centers for Medicare and Medicare Services recently launched a Nursing Home Comparison tool for consumers to track KPI’s including weekend staffing and employee turnover within these facilities.

Crimmins to help you navigate this complicated legal landscape, whether you need assistance with eldercare law, succession planning, estate planning, asset protection, Medicaid planning, veterans benefits, or Social Security.
