All professionals / For elder law and guardianship attorneys
A place to live that fits the plan you're building.
You're working on Medicaid, a guardianship or both, and your client needs a place to live while the paperwork moves. Send me the needs and the money picture, no name. I'll find homes that fit both.
Florida Bar rules limit what lawyers can take from non-lawyers for referrals. I don't pay or take referral fees with anyone who sends me a client.
What I know about your day
- Medicaid timing and the move-in date rarely line up on their own.
- The months of private pay before Medicaid matter.
- The court or your file may need a record of what was considered.
How I help
- Homes answer with the bed, the price, and whether they take Medicaid long-term care.
- I ask each home whether a resident can stay after switching from private pay to Medicaid long-term care, so your client doesn't have to move twice.
- You get a one-page summary for your file or the court.
- I don't give legal or Medicaid planning advice. That part is yours.
Papers the home will usually ask for
- Power of attorney, health care surrogate designation, or letters of guardianship, whichever applies.
- AHCA Form 1823, signed by a doctor, APRN or PA.
- Current medication list.
- Medicaid notices and long-term care plan letters.
- If there's an income trust, who the trustee is, for the home's billing.
- ID and insurance cards, given at admission.
Every home has its own admission list, and the home decides. Once the family or guardian picks a home, fax these straight to that home. Miami Placement sends you the number. Please don't email records or attach them here.
