However, if you need immediate planning for Medicaid, yes, there are techniques that you can use to preserve assets that you own and still qualify for Medicaid. It will be necessary for you to look into the necessary options that are available and how those assets are going to be titled. There are financial products you can purchase, and there are legal documents that you must put in place [1] to obtain the Medicaid benefits.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
