Medicare and Medicaid Planning
Medicare and Medicaid planning involves strategies to manage and optimize healthcare coverage for older adults and those with low income. Medicare is a federal program providing health insurance primarily for people aged 65 and older, while Medicaid offers assistance to low-income individuals, regardless of age. Planning ensures eligibility for these programs, helps protect assets, and minimizes out-of-pocket costs. It may involve legal strategies and financial tools to navigate complex rules, ensuring individuals receive necessary medical care while preserving their financial security. Proper planning can significantly impact the quality and affordability of healthcare services.
