For senior citizens and families without wealth, Medicaid, or Title 19 as it's also known, can help pay for a wide range of medical services, including long-term care in a qualified nursing facility. The rules that determine eligibility for this program can be extremely complex, a problem exacerbated by the fact that every state has different qualification requirements. Many people find the Title 19 application process to be extremely confusing, which is why Attorney Debra A. Brown has made it her mission to help Torrington, CT-area residents get the benefits they deserve.

Connecticut's Title 19 Medicaid program is known as HUSKY, and it was one of the first to expand coverage under the Affordable Care Act. HUSKY now offers comprehensive medical coverages for nearly 750,000 underprivileged adults, senior citizens, and children throughout the state. However, each population has different rules for qualifying, so it pays to consult with an elder law attorney before filing or giving up.

The rules for eligibility are strict, but an elder law attorney may be able to help you identify all of the exemptions you qualify for and keep as much of your property as possible.

Since 1995, Attorney Brown has been guiding people through the complexities of the Medicaid application process with a personalized approach that takes into account the details of any unique situation.
