Medicaid, or Title XIX, is a federal program that provides healthcare benefits to a wide variety of people. This includes uninsured individuals with low income, certain children and disabled individuals, pregnant women, and senior citizens who need care from a nursing home. Qualifying for Medicaid can be difficult, as benefit recipients must meet strict financial eligibility requirements. It's tricky to keep these requirements straight, as each state manages its own Medicaid program while the federal government sets policies and contributes to the state Medicaid fund. Through this program, mistakes, delays, and denials are common; often, enlisting the help of an experienced Medicaid attorney is the best way to obtain the benefits to which you are entitled.
A Medicaid attorney is a legal professional who specializes in the complexities of the Medicaid program. Our professionals represent eligible people who have been denied coverage in obtaining their legal rights to benefits. If you have been denied benfits, or if your application has been stalled in the system and is not being reviewed quickly enough, we can help by filing an appeal on your behalf.
