Introduction<\/h2>\n

Did you know there’s a benefit in Arizona that will pay for long-term care?<\/p>\n

The team at JacksonWhite can help your loved ones qualify for Arizona Long Term Care (ALTCS<\/a>) and get admitted to the best nursing home for their needs.<\/p>\n

Decisions associated with long-term health care are not easy ones to make. Priority should be placed on obtaining the best long term care coverage available; however, paying for these services can be a challenge for many families.<\/p>\n

What is ALTCS?<\/h2>\n

ALTCS\u00a0is an Arizona Medicaid program established in 1989 that helps support senior as well as disabled residents with a variety of long term care solutions.<\/p>\n

This program helps to offset the expensive costs of elder and disability care and can sometimes be used as a supplement to Social Security\/Disability income.\u00a0It can provide financial assistance with assisted living or nursing home fees, as well as in-home care costs when medical insurance isn’t enough.<\/p>\n

When Should I Apply?<\/h2>\n

Because the typical wait time to be approved or denied for ALTCS is 60-90 days, it is important to apply before the services become absolutely necessary. Preparing for an application by scheduling a Pre-Screen can help plan for the next steps and create an estimated timeline\u00a0for when you would receive ALTCS benefits.<\/p>\n

Pre-Screening can also highlight any red flags that you might have and find effective solutions\u00a0and make sure that you are medically and financially eligible to apply so that those variables do not preclude you from the funding.<\/p>\n
