Hospice Care

Are You Considering Hospice Care for Your Loved One in Massachusetts?

Hi, I'm Dan Serpanant [sp?] ,a partner at the law firm of Serpanant[sp?] and Berneski [sp?]. As elder law attorneys, we regularly see clients who are dealing with end of life issues. Many people don't know about, or have misconceptions about, a wonderful benefit called hospice. Essentially, hospice provides a wide variety of services to a person toward the end of their life, including taking care of issues like comfort care--respite--by allowing family members to go shopping or take the breaks that they need, and even spiritual needs.

In most cases, hospice is paid for by benefits such as Medicare, Medicaid or other private insurance. It's worth learning about.

Of the many clients that we've had who have taken advantage of the hospice this benefit, the regret was that they didn't start soon enough. Also, it's important at this time to put in place certain legal documents to protect the client, to avoid court proceedings like guardianship and conservatorship, and to protect assets or to avoid probate, or meet other goals.

To learn more about the important steps to take now, download a free guide called A Consumer's Guide to Hospice or call us or click on the consultation tab to see if you qualify for a free, no obligation consultation. We look forward to helping you.

Massachusetts Elder Law Attorneys’ FREE Report Reveals the Steps You Should be Taking Right Now

Dear Friend,

Planning for a loved one who has a life-threatening illness can be extremely complicated.

You may be torn by the emotional component…feeling like taking the step of putting final wishes into the form of a legal document such as a will or trust is somehow surrendering your fight or giving in to the disease.

In our experience as Elder Law attorneys in Southeastern Massachusetts, however, we have found that most families actually experience great peace of mind once they have taken care of their planning so they can focus on the other issues they are facing.

With this idea in mind, we have been on a “legal crusade” of sorts…one designed to provide quality information to families in crisis with the ultimate goal of helping their loved one receive the best care possible while legally protecting their family’s assets.

Here is just some of what our FREE guide reveals…

  • Answers to some of the most frequently asked questions concerning Massachusetts hospice care, including:
    • What is hospice?
    • Who is eligible?
    • Is the decision to receive hospice care permanent?
    • Does hospice pay for the cost of a nursing home?
    • How can I qualify for financial assistance to help cover the high cost of my loved one’s care?
  • Learn about the hospice benefit that could help save your family a tremendous amount of money…and the new benefit that can help your family gain peace of mind
  • The basics of Massachusetts Medicaid (known as MassHealth), and how you can protect your eligibility…without selling your home or leaving your family without a dime
  • How gifting money to your children can disqualify you from receiving financial assistance…unless it’s done just right
  • Find out how you may be able to protect your home from an estate recovery claim by the state
  • What are the Massachusetts probate laws…and can you avoid probate?

…Because everyone’s situation is unique, we’ll also include a certificate with your report for a FREE Consultation with a Massachusetts Elder Law professional.  We’ll be happy to answer any questions you may have about your situation.

When a life-threatening illness strikes, it’s the responsibility of the spouse or family leader to become fully informed – to get smart – about these things.

We have personally reviewed dozens of books, plus the literature commonly given to families who have someone on Hospice, and we have given and attended the public workshops and lectures.  And we’ve found that these leave out most of the critical financial and legal information you need to know…the information we include in your free guide.
We strongly encourage you to request your copy of “The Consumer’s Guide to Hospice Care” it explains the strategies that hundreds of families have successfully used to protect their loved ones.

Best Wishes,

Bob Surprenant, Michelle Beneski, Dan Surprenant

P.S. Making informed decisions may become difficult or even impossible over time.  The longer you wait, the greater the risk becomes.  But with proper planning, you will ensure that you’ve taken the best steps possible to protect your loved ones and your family’s financial security. Do it now before it’s too late!
