Long Term Care Attorney For Veterans Benefits
Many Americans are not aware that U.S. Armed Forces veterans and certain members of their families are entitled to a wealth of government benefits. Although healthcare is often the primary focus, an extensive array of benefits are available to those who proudly served our country, including benefits that can help offset the costs of long-term care. The attorneys at Estate & Elder Law Services proudly help veterans obtain their rightfully earned long-term care and other healthcare benefits. Our accredited VA legal team can help ease the process of applying for your veterans benefits.
Long Term Care Benefits For Veterans Include Several Options
Veterans have several options available to them when it comes to managing illnesses, injuries, or disabilities or getting help with daily tasks over an extended period of time. Long-term care needs are met through a combination of home and community-based services and facilities, including adult daycares, home-based primary care, skilled home healthcare, assisted living facilities, adult family homes, and nursing homes. Qualifying for these benefits can be challenging and a rigorous legal journey. An Estate & Elder Law Services veterans benefits attorney who specializes in the area of elder law can guide you through the maze of programs and help you find the ideal solution for your individual needs.
Payment options for long-term care available to veterans include the Standard Medical Benefits Package provided to VA healthcare enrollees, VA Disability Compensation payable to those with a service-connected disability or a veterans pension, among other sources. The ability to pay for long-term care is one of several issues that veterans need to address as part of broader estate planning efforts. A complete estate plan should address not only healthcare needs but also financial matters, including the preparation of wills, trusts or other legal documents to preserve assets and pass them on to those you care for and love.
