Our Approach
We provide support for families wanting to know if they qualify for Medi-Cal for long-term care. We use our knowledge of Medi-Cal workarounds and Medi-Cal waiver programs to help bring a clear understanding of options now or for the future. We use our years of work experience to help families and people navigate the complicated Social Services system in California.
What makes us unique is that we also understand how these programs can help someone get the medical care they need. We understand the level of care someone needs now and in the future. Being a nurse gives a deeper understanding of what one might medically need. Growing old is hard enough, and with the cost of care increasing, many cannot afford the overwhelming cost. Being disabled early also brings its own set of challenges. You do not need to do this alone!

Initial Consultation
After receiving your intake form, we will take an overall look at your options and possible Medi-Cal waivers and workarounds, keeping in mind some of the recent changes in Medi-Cal.
What Makes us Different?
Our goal is NOT to sell you long-term care insurance; we do not have a caregiving agency. Simply put, we use our years of experience to help determine what programs you or your loved one qualify for and how to develop a plan forward.
Support with Next Steps
You can choose to take the recommendations given and complete this on your own. If you would like help with next steps just let us know and we can put together a package which is unique to your situation.
Over 20 yrs in medical and social services programs
We bring a deep understanding of long-term care options using our boots-on-the-ground experience. Having helped many receive IHSS, Waiver Programs, and VA Programs we understand the challenges and ways to expedite the process. Many are denied that should have qualified. Others do not know available options to approach eligibility, which we call “workarounds.” Let our knowledge and expertise save you the headache of trying to figure this out on your own.
Frequently asked questions
What states do you service?
We operate out of California we are knowledgeable about programs in California and therefore prefer to limit our services to residence of California.
Is there help for everyone?
No, there is not. We do not offer false hope, we take a realistic approach. Our strength is providing clarity and answers to questions so that often times tough decisions can be made. in some cases we clarify possible options ie: spend down, waiver programs, VA programs among others depending on your specific situation.
Can the Spousal Impoverishment Program with Medi-Cal help with getting IHSS for my spouse who needs caregiving at home?
This program can help the spouse who may need IHSS by separating each other’s income. We can assist with seeing if this might help you.
I have a share of cost with Medi-Cal and need caregiving in my home and I am single. Are there options available to help me remove or spend down my share of the cost with Medi-Cal?
Yes, we can meet with you and look at options that might be able to help with this!
I have a lot of medications that I take and often cannot buy groceries with all that I am spending on my medications. Can I meet with someone to see what options may be available to help decrease the amount I am spending on medications?
