Practice Areas

Medicaid Eligibility and Reimbursement

One of the core practice areas of Schutjer Bogar LLC is Medicaid eligibility. Many long-term care facilities derive a significant percentage of their revenue from Medicaid recipients. Residents or their families traditionally control the Medicaid eligibility process, but unfortunately, many residents and their families are unwilling or unable to cooperate in securing Medicaid coverage. This leaves the nursing home in the position of caring for an indigent resident at great expense, while receiving no reimbursement.

Schutjer Bogar LLC’s Medicaid eligibility practice is committed to legal and practical solutions to Medicaid issues that are "outside the box." The attorneys at Schutjer Bogar LLC handle 20 to 30 Medicaid cases at any one time, and have an overwhelming success rate with these cases. Schutjer Bogar LLC has also developed policies and procedures for clients designed to promote a consistent, uniform, and effective method of addressing these affairs at the facility level. In short, Schutjer Bogar LLC’s experience with the Medicaid application and appeal process gives its attorneys a distinct advantage over other firms who do not have the ability or the interest to become well versed in these issues.
