In her first term on the board, she spent many hours and long nights working hard at meetings and on projects.

Schools Project Graduation Plainville High School/YMCA Project Graduation is an allnight drug- and alcohol-free celebration at the Wheeler YMCA for PHS seniors on graduation night. Making this night a success takes many volunteers (adults and students). It’s important for parents of seniors to take part in Project Graduation because the party is held for their children, and also for the parents of underclassmen, so they know what to expect when their children graduate.

Should you prepare a Medicaid application yourself, or get help?

A decision on whether to prepare and file a Medicaid application on your own or hire help depends on answers to these questions: • How old is the applicant? • How complicated is the applicant’s financial situation? • Is the individual applying for community or nursing home benefits? • How much time do you have available?
Gayle Dennehy Carrier Chair, Republican Town Committee
• How organized are you? Medicaid is the health care program for individuals without other insurance or those whose insurance does not cover what they need, such as long-term care. Many people rely on Medicaid for assistance in paying for care at home or in nursing homes.

For those under age 65 who don’t need long-term care, Medicaid eligibility is determined largely by income, and the process of applying is not very complicated. Most people can apply on their own without assistance.
Making Your Driveway Great Again!
Matters get a bit more complicated for applicants age 65 and older, and those of any age who need nursing home or home care coverage. In such cases, it is practically essential to seek the services of an attorney.

To be eligible, Medicaid applicants over age 65 are limited to $1,600 in countable assets. It’s possible to transfer assets over this amount to become eligible, but seniors need to be careful. They may need the funds in the future, and if they move to a nursing home the transfer could make them ineligible for benefits for five years. Professional advice is also crucial because there is a confusing array of Medicaid programs that may be of assistance in providing home care, each with its own rules. The application process can be just as complicated for community benefits, meaning care that takes place outside of an institutional setting, such as in the beneficiary’s home.
Southington • Bristol
Submitting an application for nursing home benefits without an attorney’s help, however, is not a good idea. Medicaid officials subject such applications to enhanced scrutiny, and the application requires submission of five years of financial records and documentation of every fact. Any unexplained expense may be treated as a disqualifying transfer of assets, and many planning steps, such as trusts, transfers to family members and family care agreements, are viewed as suspect unless properly explained. The process generally takes several months. An applicant should expect Medicaid to continue asking questions and demanding supporting documentation for answers provided.
