Medicaid Planning vs. Medicare

Many families in Greenwood come to Vick Law with the same question: “Doesn’t Medicare cover nursing home care?” It’s an understandable confusion—and one that often leads to costly mistakes. The truth is, Medicare and Medicaid are very different, and knowing that difference can protect your family’s home and savings from being wiped out by long-term care costs. At Vick Law in Greenwood, Indiana, we focus on Medicaid planning because it gives families control, peace of mind, and financial protection during one of life’s most vulnerable stages.

You Should Be Thinking About Long-Term Care Cost

Are you worried about how you’ll cover the high cost of nursing home care for your spouse or aging parent? Do you want to make sure your family’s savings—and your home—aren’t wiped out in the process? You’re not alone. At Vick Law, we meet with Indiana families every week who are overwhelmed by the cost of long-term care and the confusion of Medicaid rules. Often, they’ve already started spending down assets just to qualify—sometimes draining their life savings before they find out there was a better way.

Medicaid Estate Recovery in 2025

Most families don’t realize it until it’s too late: Medicaid can come after your home after your death. It sounds harsh, even unbelievable. But for families across Indiana, it’s an all-too-common reality. A parent needs long-term care, qualifies for Medicaid, moves into a nursing facility—and after they pass, the state sends a notice. The family home, the one you thought would stay in the family, is now subject to Medicaid estate recovery.
