Medicaid Planning means taking advantage of legal options to help qualify for Medicaid sooner than otherwise possible.

Medicaid is a federal program administered by the states. It was signed into law by 1964, by President Lyndon B. Johnson, the same time Medicaid started. Initially, it was designed to take care of the very poor's nursing home bills. Today, it is funded by a combination of federal and state funds as an entitlement program, which means if you qualify, you are entitled to the benefits.

Each state has it's own interpretation of the federal guidelines. Furthermore, each case worker has their own interpretation of the county's interpretation, etc., etc. The point is there is a lot of confusion about medical regulations.
