You Will Not Have to Pay Everything to the Nursing home
While typically some assets must be "spent down" in order to become eligible for Medicaid, through the use of trusts and other asset preservation tools, we may be able to save a substantial portion of your assets, allowing you to get the care you need without spending down all of your assets. Additionally, many assets, such as your home and adjoining land, your household furniture, one vehicle, and up to $2,000, are exempt from Medicaid.
