New Yorkers who have Medicaid and need home attendant services can have this type of care covered. Approval is granted when financial and medical criteria are met, and an individual submits an M11q form that his or her doctor has thoroughly completed. These services can offer substantial savings for an individual and their family, and helps to provide for daily care.
Personal care services, which are also called home attendant services, can greatly assist individuals affected by physical or mental impairments. Individuals who have excess resources or income can get the skilled advice of a New York Medicaid planning lawyer to access benefits and preserve assets. Once home care is authorized, an attendant can assist from 12 hours a week to around-the-clock care.
It is also important for people who have been denied benefits to have their case reviewed. An experienced Medicaid planning attorney can uphold an individual’s rights and ensure that the medical and financial information is complete when a hearing is needed to seek benefits the second time around. Hearings can also be expedited in certain circumstances.
