VA Aid & Attendance Benefit
The VA Aid & Attendance benefit is an excellent source for qualified veterans (or their spouses) to receive financial assistance for high medical cost. Most veterans have no idea this benefit is available to them. The benefit will probably not cover 100% of skilled nursing expenses, however the $2,169 monthly benefit might help cover the expenses for those residing in an assisted living facility or for those receiving in-home care. Elder Life Group and its team of Elder Life Advisors work with a team of Elder Law attorney’s around the country that are VA accredited and we provide a free analysis based on an interpretation of common law, trust law, asset protection and Medicaid laws. We analyze the risk of you losing your assets to a lawsuit, nursing home or other unforeseen liability.
