FAQs
What is Medicaid?
Medicaid is a federal and state funded program that is administered by each state. It pays medical care costs for those that can’t afford them. Eligible individuals include age 65 and over, blind or disabled.
Is it difficult to apply for Medicaid?
In a word, YES. There is an extensive amount of information requested by the Medicaid intake office. Medicaid requires up to 5 years of bank statements, copies of all financial transactions, explanations concerning any transfers made during that time period, and copies of legal instruments, such as trusts and annuities. Failure to comply with requests for information could lead to loss of coverage or denial of benefits. Because of the amount of information required, it may take months to complete an application. With complications, it can take even longer.
Are we a law firm?
NO. We process Medicaid applications and work with families to answer questions presented by Medicaid examiners. It is your right to obtain independent counsel to answer a question about a legal matter. We will work with your attorney or can provide you a list of referrals to qualified counsel.
What if the patient dies before the application is approved?
Once the process begins the flat fee is non-refundable. However, Medicaid4You.com, LLC will allow three days from signing the contract to change your mind and receive a refund. In many cases we need to complete the process as the facility is waiting for their Medicaid payments.
What if the application is rejected?
The overwhelming percentage of applications submitted by Medicaid4You.com, LLC are approved on a timely basis. If the application is denied due to missing or incomplete information, Medicaid4You.com, LLC will assist in obtaining the necessary documents and submit to the apropriate office. If the application is denied for substantive reasons we will notify you of your rights. If possible, we will continue to work with you and/or your attorney to obtain eligibility.
Do I need to attend a hearing?
With the proper authorization, our personnel will attend an appeal hearing on your behalf. Depending on the reason for the denial, there may be an additional charge. However, we do not give legal advice and it is strongly recommended that you secure counsel. An appeal is the result of a rejection generally based on improper transfers, incomplete information, and/or the inappropriate use of trusts.
