- Medicaid is a government healthcare program with strict eligibility criteria regarding assets.
- A Medicaid Asset Protection Trust (MAPT) is an irrevocable trust that protects assets while maintaining Medicaid eligibility.
- Assets are transferred into the trust, removing them from consideration as countable resources.
- A MAPT is typically established with the guidance of an attorney experienced in elder law and Medicaid planning.
- The trust is managed by a trustee, who acts in the best interests of the beneficiaries. - The irrevocable nature of the trust ensures that assets are not counted for Medicaid eligibility.
- The primary benefits of a MAPT include asset protection, Medicaid eligibility, estate planning, and long-term care planning.
