NY family law attorney Russel Morgan, Esq. explains how Medicaid can help with home care. He notes that community Medicaid can assist with home care because it is specifically designed to provide services such as a home health aide. These services can be delivered either by a third-party provider or, through the Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program, by a family member who is compensated for providing care. Medicaid is often a primary reason why individuals create asset protection and estate plans—to ensure access to home care, visiting nurse services, palliative care if needed, and any other services that Medicaid may approve.
