Medicaid Planner/Advocate

Founder, Emics Elder Care

We are Medicaid Planners & Advocates.

We have designed a distinctly different approach to Medicaid Planning. Our overarching goal is to connect people to care, more effectively, in shorter time frames, and by doing so, creating more beneficial outcomes. We have identified critical issues within the Planning, Preparation, and Placement stages that are often overlooked or simply not addressed. By creating more personalized solutions we are able to provide a more complete unique experience. Our in-home consults are always free, and we are available to the families we serve, around the clock.
