At Crosswhite Law in Statesville, NC, our dedicated team specializes in helping individuals and families navigate the complexities of long-term care and Medicaid planning to safeguard assets and ease financial burdens.

Understanding Long-Term Care Needs

With extensive knowledge of elder care laws, our attorneys stay updated on the evolving landscape of Medicaid and Medicare regulations. We work closely with clients to develop comprehensive estate plans that address long-term care needs while preserving assets for future generations. Our tailored planning strategies may include:

The Financial Impact of Long-Term Care

Long-term care expenses can be staggering, with nursing home costs in Charlotte, NC, averaging $7,756 per month according to the 2021 Genworth Cost of Care report. Medicare and private health insurance often do not cover the full cost, leaving families facing significant financial burdens.

Navigating Medicaid Eligibility

Medicaid is a vital resource for many families, but navigating its complex eligibility requirements can be daunting. Our experienced attorneys help clients understand Medicaid rules and plan strategically to qualify for benefits without depleting their entire estate.

Planning for long-term care is essential, as statistics show that most individuals will require some form of long-term care during their lifetime. With a 70% chance of needing care, it's crucial to start planning early to maximize options and preserve assets.
