PUT YOUR TRUST IN LIFE: We administer pooled income and asset trusts for clients receiving Community Medicaid and SSI.

About us

LIFE is the Trustee of Medicaid pooled income and asset trusts. The trust is an excellent solution for individuals who qualify for Medicaid medically, but have too much income or resources to qualify financially. The trust can shelter the income so that the individual remains Medicaid-eligible, and disbursements can be made from the trust to cover a wide range of the individual's personal expenses. For more information, please contact Jennifer Katz, Esq. at jkatz@lifetech.org. Visit our website to find information on trust eligibility, print out the Joinder Agreement, Disbursement Forms and more.

    🔎 Have You Ever Wondered What the Differences Are Between Income, Asset, and Special Needs Trusts? When planning for long-term care and financial stability, understanding the right type of Trust is essential. LIFE Pooled Trusts offers solutions for each of these Trusts, helping individuals maintain eligibility for benefits like Medicaid while safeguarding their assets. Here’s a quick overview: 🔹 Income Trusts – Designed for those with income above Medicaid limits, an Income Trust allows excess income to be deposited into the Trust for approved expenses. This keeps beneficiaries eligible for Medicaid while covering essential costs. 🔹 Asset Trusts – For individuals whose assets exceed eligibility thresholds for Medicaid or SSI, an Asset Trust provides a way to protect those assets while still qualifying for benefits. This Trust ensures assets are preserved for future needs without impacting benefits. 🔹 Special Needs Trusts (SNTs) – Tailored for individuals with disabilities, SNTs protect assets while preserving eligibility for programs like Medicaid and SSI. SNT funds can enhance the beneficiary’s quality of life by covering items like therapy, personal care, and recreational activities. ✨ LIFE Pooled Trusts assists with each of these options, ensuring that resources are available for today and tomorrow while meeting essential eligibility requirements.

  • Did you know that Medicaid could help cover essential healthcare costs, but the eligibility process can be tricky? Understanding the basics can make a big difference: 1. Check Your Eligibility: Medicaid eligibility depends on factors like income, assets, age, and disability, and each state has unique guidelines. Knowing your state’s requirements is the first step. 2. Gather Essential Documents: Be prepared with key documents such as proof of citizenship, income statements, and details on your assets. 3. Apply Through Your State Agency or Health Insurance Marketplace: Many states accept online applications, though some may require in-person visits. Consider working with a benefits counselor if you have questions. Worried about exceeding income or asset limits? A LIFE Pooled Trust can help preserve funds while still qualifying for Medicaid. It’s an effective tool for those with disabilities who need Medicaid to access necessary care. Together we can work to make healthcare more accessible. Visit lifetrusts.org for more information.
