[quote=Anonymous]I only have experience with CA Medicaid, but if it’s anything alike it’s hardly overwhelming. Apply for him online using your address, and do it now. It takes 90 days to process the application in CA so I doubt it’s much faster here. Also put yourself as an authorized rep on the application. I don’t know anything about LTC but there are programs where the state pays a caregiver to care for a Medicaid recipient at home. You can become the caregiver or hire someone. When he needs a nursing home, he might not get into the fanciest one but he should be ok if you hire someone to visit him there and keep an eye on staff. Grease their palms (not with money but food and maybe gift cards for holidays) and they’ll keep a better eye on him. I doubt these basic things are very different from CA. [/quote]
