MY SHORT, HELPFUL BOOKS
The Ultimate Guide to Nursing Home Medicaid for the Stressed Out Husband or Wife is exactly what it claims to be: your definitive guide to navigating the maze of Medicaid regulations involved when your spouse needs a nursing home.
In this book, you’ll discover that you don’t need to get a divorce just to protect your home and life savings from your spouse’s nursing home bill. You’ll see how Medicaid’s rules are set up to be confusing unless you have an expert guide.
And you’ll meet a married couple, just like you, who saved their house and more than $500,000 in savings from the nursing home bill just by following the Medicaid rules.
You deserve to leave a legacy that reflects your hopes and dreams for your life savings, but there’s a lot that can get in the way of achieving those goals.
Inapacity. Nursing home bills. Creditors and predators. Probate.
In How to Protect Your Home and Life Savings in Iowa, we focus on planning ahead for the curveballs life throws at you, so you can leave the legacy you want.
Using simple analogies and true stories, I wrote this book to explain how real, proper estate planning will take you from anxiety and stress over the threats to your legacy to confidence that you and your loved ones will keep control of your care and your finances.

Free book reveals the secrets of nursing home Medicaid to give you hope for your financial security
If you’re looking for help with your spouse’s nursing home bill, you need to download this free book right now. You know that at $7,700 per month and rising, the cost of your spouse’s nursing home care could quickly consume all of your life savings. Faced with the stress of moving your husband or wife to the nursing home and the shock of that huge monthly expense, it’s no wonder you can’t see how you could possibly afford to get them the care they need.
The government has an answer to paying this bill for people who can’t afford it: Medicaid (also known as Title 19). Nursing homes often have you submit a Medicaid application when you first move in, but that application usually gets denied. And the Medicaid system can feel like a labyrinth of indecipherable rules and cranky state employees.
Don’t wait for the nursing home bill to consume your savings! Request a FREE copy of It’s Not Too Late: The Ultimate Guide to Nursing Home Medicaid for the Stressed out Husband or Wife.
