Olsen Law Group Medicaid assessment

Olsen Law Group Medicaid assessment.

Attorney Tom Olsen: Medicaid assessment is a service that we offer to people that if they share with us their financials, what kind of assets they own and the value of those assets, you actually put together a plan for them, that we may not implement that plan right away, but it's sitting there ready to go when mom or dad need to go into a nursing home in three years, five years, 10 years. That plan is there and in place.

Attorney Robert Hidock: At the Olsen Law Group, we're very proactive with pre-planning because our philosophy is "let's know what we're going to do." If a situation should happen, the children or spouse of the person going to the nursing home, doesn't have to worry about what they're going to do. They can concentrate on the health of their loved one that's in despair, because we've done all the work for them already, we know what we're going to do.

Attorney Tom Olsen: There a lot of people out there listening right now and thinking, "Hey Tom, if I or my spouse needs to go into a nursing home, what is my legal financial liability to pay for that nursing home? What assets do I own, are protected or need to be protected? How do I protect my life savings from nursing homes?" The best way to do that is through the Medicaid assessment with you.

Attorney Robert Hidock: Absolutely. We go over income. We go over what assets they have. We show them if they're over, where their exposure is, and what we can do to help them.

Attorney Tom Olsen: Okay. We don't normally quote fees over the year, but this is something I want to let people know that doing a Medicaid assessment is very reasonably priced. How much do you charge for that?

Attorney Robert Hidock: Well, we charge $600 for that. That includes a review of their power of attorney. If they need a new power of attorney, that's also included in the price as well.

Attorney Tom Olsen: If you're curious about protecting your life savings from nursing homes, the $600 assessment is not expensive, and you're going to have all the answers you need, all the information you need to know how to protect your life savings from nursing homes.
