When should an individual begin preparing for ALTCS eligibility?
Anybody who suspects they may need long-term health care in the future should consult with an Elder Law attorney about ALTCS planning. Even those who already require medical attention, but do not qualify for the ALTCS benefit, can gain much from ALTCS Medicaid planning. The general rule is that people who actively work towards Arizona Medicaid eligibility tend to obtain ALTCS eligibility sooner than those who do not. An Elder Law lawyer can evaluate an individual’s situation so that they may apply for Arizona Medicaid and begin receiving the benefit with as little delay as possible.
