Your situation is worth a closer look. Here's why.
Some of your answers suggest real planning opportunities may exist. Others need clarification before an attorney can say how much is protectable. That's normal. Most families don't have every number at their fingertips, and "I don't know yet" answers are exactly what a short call resolves.
The free 15-minute call with Abby N. Wilson covers which Ohio protections could apply, what information to gather (you'll get a simple list), and, if planning can help, the flat fee, upfront.
The call is free. Know the path before another month of care is paid.

Planning ahead puts your family in the strongest position of anyone who takes this assessment.
Options are widest before care is needed. Ohio's Medicaid rules look back five years, which means the earlier planning starts, the more the calendar works in your favor instead of against you.
Nothing here is urgent, and that's exactly the advantage. A free 15-minute call with Abby N. Wilson will map out what's worth putting in place now and what can wait.
The call is free and there is no obligation. You set the pace from here.

Formal Medicaid planning may not offer your family much benefit. We won't pretend otherwise.
Based on your answers, the situation may already qualify for Ohio Medicaid without complex planning, or the likely cost of planning could outweigh what it would protect. Here's what we'd suggest instead:
- Applying for Ohio Medicaid. The application itself has traps worth knowing about. Start at medicaid.ohio.gov.
- Your local Area Agency on Aging. Free help with care options and benefits: ohioaging.org.
- One thing to avoid. Don't transfer money or property to family right now without advice. It can create penalties even in simple situations.
If anything changes, a spouse's health, an inheritance, a new diagnosis, the assessment is here, and so are we. If you'd still like 15 minutes with Abby to confirm this, the call is free either way.
