Medicaid Will Take Care of You —
Then Take Your Home.

Most families don't discover the true cost of Medicaid long-term care until it's too late. Here's what you need to know before you or a loved one needs care.

⚠️ The Hidden Truths About Medicaid

1

You must spend down nearly everything first. Medicaid only kicks in after you've exhausted your savings, assets, and resources down to very low thresholds — as little as $2,000 in some states.

2

Estate Recovery is real. After you pass, the state can file a claim against your home, property, and estate to recover what Medicaid paid. Your family could lose the house.

3

You don't choose your care. Medicaid dictates who provides your care, where, and how much. Your preferences come last.

4

Medicare doesn't cover long-term care. Medicare covers short-term skilled nursing after a hospital stay — not the ongoing home care most people actually need.

5

The wait lists are growing. Medicaid-approved home health providers are increasingly overwhelmed, leaving families scrambling for care when they need it most.

The Medicaid Spend-Down: How It Actually Works

1
You Need Long-Term Care

An illness, injury, or age-related condition requires ongoing home care or nursing assistance.

2
You Pay Out of Pocket — First

You use your savings, retirement accounts, and liquid assets to pay for care. Home health aides average $25–$35/hour. Costs add up fast.

3
Once Assets Are Depleted, Medicaid Qualifies You

After spending down to near-poverty level ($2,000 countable assets in many states), Medicaid steps in to cover remaining costs.

4
The State Sends the Bill — After You're Gone

Through Medicaid Estate Recovery, the state files a claim against your estate to recoup what it paid. Your home, which may have been exempt during your lifetime, can be claimed after your death.

5
Your Family Inherits the Problem

Heirs may be forced to sell the family home to satisfy the state's claim. A lifetime of savings — gone.

Home Is Where Healing Happens

Study after study confirms the same thing: given the choice, an overwhelming majority of Americans want to receive care at home — close to family, in familiar surroundings, on their own terms.

  • 🏠

    Comfort & Familiarity

    Home environments reduce anxiety, improve recovery outcomes, and support mental wellbeing in ways that clinical settings simply can't replicate.

  • 👨‍👩‍👧

    Family Connection

    Staying home means staying close to the people who matter most. Our plan even allows benefits for care provided by family members and loved ones.

  • 🤝

    Dignity & Control

    Choose who provides your care, when, and how. Home care puts you in charge of your own health journey — not a facility administrator.

  • 💰

    Financial Protection

    With daily benefits up to $450, your plan pays you directly — covering care costs while keeping your savings and estate intact for your family.

  • 🔄

    Restored Independence

    Physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech pathology — all covered at home. Heal faster, stay stronger, and return to independence sooner.

"Nobody plans to need care. But everyone deserves to receive it at home — with dignity, without bankrupting their family."
