There are three very important areas to consider in developing a comprehensive Medi-Cal plan: Eligibility Planning - to qualify for Medi-Cal benefits;
1.Income Planning - to reduce or eliminate a Medi-Cal beneficiary's monthly share of cost co-payment; and
2.Medi-Cal Recovery Planning- to reduce or completely eliminate Medi-Cal recovery against the beneficiary's estate.
Our office will carefully review your assets, income and estate planning documents to develop a comprehensive Medi-Cal plan tailored to your specific situation. We typically offer our clients several alternative strategies and thoroughly review each strategy with our clients so that they can make an informed decision.
What Is Medi-Cal?
Medi-Cal is the state of California's version of the federal Medicaid program that provides additional health insurance for qualified individuals who are 65 years of age, blind or disabled. Medi-Cal is particularly helpful for individuals who are residing in a skilled nursing home that have exhausted their Medicare skilled nursing home coverage. While Medicare may cover the first 20 days of skilled nursing home expenses, coverage for days 21 through 100 requires a co-payment, and is only available if the patient continues to show improvement in his or her condition. On the other hand, Medi-Cal will continue to pay for skilled nursing home expenses indefinitely, regardless of whether or not the patient continues to show improvement.
Unfortunately, many people are misinformed about the eligibility criteria Medi-Cal uses to determine eligibility. Such misinformation is likely due to the ever changing and complicated Medi-Cal regulations. Despite what you might have heard, you do not have to be destitute in order to qualify for Medi-Cal benefits. With the guidance of a knowledgeable elder law attorney, it is legal to implement various planning techniques in order to qualify for Medi-Cal benefits.
Our law firm is experienced in developing and implementing various Medi-Cal planning techniques to quickly qualify an individual for Medi-Cal benefits and to minimize or completely eliminate any state recovery for benefits received. Medi-Cal planning is our passion and we take great pride in developing sound planning options for our clients tailored to their unique circumstances.
Standard Eligibility Limits For Long Term Care Medi-Cal Benefits
The applicant must be 65 years of age, blind or disabled in order to receive Medi-Cal Long Term Care benefits. A single applicant may not have more than $2,000.00 (for 2008) in non-exempt assets, while the spouse of a married applicant is allowed $104,400.00 (for 2008) in non-exempt assets.
Medi-Cal classifies certain assets as exempt and their values are not used in the determining an applicant's eligibility. The following are the major assets considered exempt by Medi-Cal in determining eligibility:
•Principal Residence
•Certain Life Insurance
•One Vehicle
•Household Goods
•Most Qualified Retirement Accounts
•Burial Plots
It is important to understand that the above are standard Medi-Cal eligibility limits. For married applicants, it is possible to significantly increase the standard $104,400.00 limit.
Again, a Medi-Cal eligibility plan should only be carried out under the guidance of a knowledgeable California elder law attorney familiar with Medi-Cal regulations.
Although an applicant's income is not an eligibility factor, Medi-Cal does review an applicant's income to determine the applicant's monthly co-payment (share of cost). The formula used to determine an applicant's share of cost has many variables and often allows the applicant's spouse to retain a large portion of the applicant's income.
Medi-Cal Estate Recovery
Medi-Cal keeps track of the total amount of benefits it pays out over the lifetime of a Medi-Cal beneficiary and attempts to recover that amount from the beneficiary's remaining estate. Medi-Cal may only recover from the assets that the Medi-Cal beneficiary has an ownership interest in at the time of their passing, and only after the Medi-Cal beneficiary's spouse also passes away. Thus, the Medi-Cal beneficiary's spouse will have unrestricted use of the assets for the remainder of their life.
Medi-Cal Services Provided By Our Law Office
We understand that Medi-Cal planning can be an emotional undertaking for you and your family. Our office will make the Medi-Cal process as easy as possible by providing the following services:
•Preparation and explanation of alternative Medi-Cal planning strategies available for your specific situation;
•Implementation of the Medi-Cal qualification strategy of your choice;
•Preparation of the Medi-Cal application forms;
•Our office will deal directly with Medi-Cal on your behalf through completion of the application process;
•Preparation of estate planning documents (if applicable);
•Assist you with your overall estate plan; and
•Preparation of all documents necessary to reduce or eliminate Medi-Cal recovery (if applicable).
A Word of Caution
Medi-Cal regulations are constantly updated and changed. Medi-Cal planning should only be done under the supervision of an elder law attorney familiar with Medi-Cal. Certain transfers of property can have significant tax ramifications that should be discussed with your attorney. Furthermore, improper transfers can disqualify a Medi-Cal beneficiary and result in a significant period of ineligibility for Medi-Cal benefits.

What's the best way to give money now?
Giving gifts to family and charity while you're alive can be a boon to them - and your estate.
Estate planning isn't just about how you want your assets distributed after you die. It's about deciding how much you want to give away while you're still alive. If you plan carefully - so you don't outlive your assets - giving allows you to reduce your taxable estate and provide advance help to your beneficiaries.
There are two easy ways to give gifts without incurring the gift tax:
•You may pay an unlimited amount in medical or educational expenses for another person, if you give the money directly to the institutions where the expenses were incurred.
•You may give up to $13,000 a year in cash or assets to as many people as you like.
Anytime you give more than $13,000 annually to any one person you must file a gift-tax return and the excess amount will be applied toward your lifetime gift-tax exclusion of $1 million.
If at any point your gifts exceed that exclusion, you will have to pay gift tax on the excess amount. There is some good news in that regard. The top tax rate on gifts is gradually declining and will fall to 35 percent by 2010.
Keep in mind, too, that gifts you give within three years of your death that exceed the lifetime gift-tax exclusion will reduce the amount of money you may leave to your heirs free of federal estate taxes , according to certified public accountant P. Jeffrey Christakos of First Union Securities in Westfield, N.J. For example, if you give away $100,000 more than your lifetime exclusion within three years of your death, your estate-tax exemption will be reduced by $100,000.
If you want to invest in a 529 college savings plan for a beneficiary, contributions are treated as gifts. You may put in as much as $65,000 in one year ($130,000 with your spouse), but that contribution will be treated as if it were being made in $13,000 installments over five years.
That means you can't give any more money to that beneficiary tax-free during that five-year period. Should you die before the five years are up, part of the money you gave will be included in your taxable estate, specifically the $65,000 minus $13,000 for each year you were alive.
The tax consequence of making large gifts can get complicated. So if you have a large estate, consult with your financial or tax planner to see how much giving you can do without triggering a big tax bill. Charitable donations are another way to reduce your estate. By investing in charitable gift funds and community foundations, those donations can stretch beyond your death.
Charitable gift funds, which are offered by Fidelity, Vanguard and others, permit you to make a tax-deductible donation, grow your investment tax-free, and then direct a contribution - in your name - to nonprofits of your choosing whenever you like.
Community foundations are regionally based charities that take donations of as little as $5,000 in cash, stock or property. The foundations invest that money, pool the gains, and allocate grants, usually to local nonprofits. In most cases, you may either have the foundation give money to organizations you choose or ask the foundation to locate a worthy recipient for a cause you like.
You also can set up what's known as a charitable lead trust, from which a charity receives the income and your heirs the principal; or a charitable remainder trust, in which your heirs get the income and the charity gets the principal.

HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996)
What is HIPAA?
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (Public Law 104-191), also known as HIPAA, was enacted as a Congressional attempt to reform healthcare. The purpose of the Act is to:
•Improve portability and continuity of health insurance coverage in the group and individual markets;
•To combat waste, fraud, and abuse in health insurance and health care delivery;
•To promote the use of medical savings accounts;
•To improve access to long-term care services and coverage;
•To simplify the administration of health insurance; and
•Other purposes.
Title I of the HIPAA law deals with health care access, portability, and renewability with the intention of protecting health insurance coverage for workers and their families when they change or lose their jobs. Title II of the law, also known as "Administrative Simplification", deals with preventing health care fraud and abuse.
The "Administrative Simplification" aspect of that law requires the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to develop standards and requirements for maintenance and transmission of health information that identifies individual patients. These standards are usually referred to as "HIPAA Regulations".
These regulations are designed to:
1.Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the healthcare system by standardizing the interchange of electronic data for specified administrative and financial transactions; and
2.Protect the security and confidentiality of electronic health information.
The requirements outlined by the law and the regulations promulgated by DHHS are far-reaching. Health care organizations that maintain or transmit electronic health information must comply. This includes health plans, health care clearinghouses, and healthcare providers who submit claims electronically. After each final regulation is adopted, small health plans have 36 months to comply. Others, including healthcare providers, must comply within 24 months.
What are the HIPAA regulations?
The components of Title II, Administrative Simplification, of the HIPAA law are called "regulations" (often referred to as "rules" or "standards") and must be implemented to comply with the law. These regulations are as follows:
•Electronic Transactions (Includes Standard Code Sets)
•Claims Attachments
•Unique Health Identifiers
•National Provider Identifier
•National Employer Identifier
•National Health Plan Identifier
•National Individual Identifier
•Privacy
•Security
•Enforcement
How are Rules (Regulations) Made?
The US Department of Health & Human Services proposes the rules. Once a rule is approved from within the government, the public is given the opportunity to comment on the proposal, and those comments are analyzed and considered in the development of the final rules. The final rules will have the force of Federal law. Read more about how rules are made.
What part of HIPAA is DHHS focusing on?
The NC DHHS HIPAA Initiative focuses on Title II - the "Administrative Simplification" portion of the law.
What are the penalties for not complying?
It is not yet completely understood how these penalties will be applied. More information will become available when the complete Enforcement Regulation is published. However, the general penalty for failure to comply is:
•Each violation: $100
•Maximum penalty for all violations of an identical requirement: may not exceed $25,000
•Wrongful Disclosure of Individually Identifiable Health Information:
•Wrongful disclosure offense: $50,000, imprisonment of not more than one year or both
•Offense under false pretenses: $100,000, imprisonment of not more than 5 years, or both
•Offense with intent to sell information: $250,000, imprisonment of not more than 10 years, or both

Low Cost Secured Loans – Secure your financial condition at low rates
While loans do definitely play a great role in the financial lives of the common man, it is equally right that low cost loans do play a role, for many of the borrowers would prefer such. And this is where low cost secured loans come in to play their part as loans with ‘low cost’ or ‘low interest rates’, while their usage can be multipurpose.
This is also to say that low cost secured loans are affordable loans that can be avail by the needy against a collateral pledge, as these are secured loans. This collateral is often a property or an asset and the cash given in value against the collateral. And this amount can be use to aid the various financial needs of the borrower such as buying a new property or car, renovating homes, consolidating debts, etc.
The amount of the low cost secured loans is often high due to the collateral attached and range from about £ 5000-£ 1, 00,000. As there is a security involved for these loans, their interest rates are low added with a rather long repayment time of 5-25 years which makes it convenient for the borrowers to repay back.
While the interest rates of the low cost secured loans are low, one is also given the option of choosing between a variable and fixed interest system.
