Practice · Medicaid Planning
Care you can afford, without giving up what you meant to leave behind.
Free initial consultation — no cost, no obligation.
Massar Elder Law helps families understand long-term-care Medicaid eligibility, spousal protections, asset-preservation strategies, applications, transfers, trusts, and estate-recovery concerns.
Texas Medicaid long-term care benefits have strict eligibility rules — income caps, asset limits, and a five-year look-back on most transfers. Applying without preparation often results in denials, delays, or unnecessary spend-down.
We work with families both years in advance and in the middle of a hospital discharge crisis. In every case, the goal is the same: qualify for the benefits available, protect what the law permits, and get care in place.
Three planning windows
5+ years out
The widest range of options. Trust-based strategies can protect the home and substantial liquid assets.
Within the look-back
Partial protection is still possible using compliant transfers, spousal strategies, and annuities.
In crisis
Even at the doorstep of a nursing home, we can often preserve meaningful assets for a spouse or family.
