The biggest financial risk most families face isn’t taxes or stock market crashes it’s the cost of long-term care.
With nursing home costs averaging $10,038 per month in Pennsylvania, a lifetime of savings can be wiped out in a matter of months.
At Pecori Elder Law, we help you protect your home, savings, and assets while still qualifying for the benefits you deserve. Whether you need help planning in advance or are facing a Medicaid crisis right now, we can guide you through the process.
Many people think that to qualify for Medicaid, they must drain their savings and spend everything down to nothing. This isn’t true, but failing to plan could force you into that situation.
Without proper planning, here’s what can happen:

Meet Mary, a 75-year-old widow who lived comfortably in her home in Oakdale. She had always assumed that if she ever needed a nursing home, Medicare would cover the cost.
When Mary suffered a stroke and required full-time care, she was shocked to learn that Medicare doesn’t pay for long-term nursing home stays and that Medicaid has strict financial limits.
Desperate to qualify for benefits, Mary transferred $100,000 to her children, hoping to protect her savings.
But because of Medicaid’s five-year look-back rule, her application was denied, and she was forced to spend nearly all of her remaining assets on care before Medicaid would step in.
Had Mary planned ahead, she could have legally protected her assets without penalty.

Planning for long-term care isn’t just about qualifying for Medicaid it’s about protecting everything you’ve worked for and ensuring your loved ones aren’t left struggling.
Here are three crucial reasons to start planning today:
Without a plan, Medicaid may require you to spend-down nearly everything before providing assistance.
With strategic planning, your home and assets can be legally protected while still qualifying for benefits.
If you gift assets or transfer money without proper planning, you could face years of ineligibility, forcing you to pay out-of-pocket for care.
Planning ahead with trusts and asset protection strategies ensures your wealth is preserved without violating Medicaid’s rules.
Without a Medicaid plan, your loved ones may face stressful financial decisions or be forced to sell assets to cover your care.
A clear plan removes uncertainty, ensures your wishes are followed and prevents costly legal battles over your estate.
The cost of long-term care can drain your life savings, force the sale of your home, and leave your family scrambling for answers. But with the right legal planning, you can protect your assets, qualify for Medicaid, and secure the care you need without losing everything.
At Pecori Elder Law, we make the Medicaid planning process simple.
Whether you’re planning years in advance or facing an urgent crisis, we can help you navigate the system, avoid costly mistakes, and protect what matters most.
