Exceptional Care, Right at Home

In Missouri, spenddown refers to the process of reducing income and/or assets to qualify for Medicaid benefits. If a person’s income is above the Medicaid eligibility threshold, they may need to “spend down” their income on medical expenses before they can qualify for assistance.

We offer support and guidance through the spenddown process to ensure that clients can access the Medicaid benefits they need for healthcare services. Here’s how we assist:

• Assessing Eligibility: We can help determine if you or your loved one qualifies for Medicaid and explain the requirements for spenddown.
• Understanding Medical Expenses: We guide you in identifying qualifying medical expenses, including in-home care services, that can be used to meet the spenddown requirement.
• Assisting with Documentation: Our team can help gather the necessary documentation and paperwork to ensure that you’re meeting the spenddown requirements and submitting everything accurately to Medicaid.
• Coordinating with Medicaid: We work directly with Medicaid representatives on your behalf to ensure that all necessary steps are taken for a successful spenddown.
• Support for Ongoing Care: Once the spenddown process is complete, we continue to offer in-home care services that may be covered under Medicaid, ensuring your loved one receives the care they deserve.

• We can assist you in exploring options to get your spenddown waived if you meet certain qualifications, helping to reduce the financial burden and ensure you can access the care you need.

• Expert Guidance: Our experienced team is knowledgeable about Missouri’s Medicaid rules, the spenddown process, and options for waivers.
• Personalized Support: We provide one-on-one assistance, walking you through every step of the spenddown process with care and understanding.
• Access to Care: We help you access the services that can improve your quality of life without the added financial burden, including personal care, nursing services, and therapy.
