Free White Papers
Caldwell Law has prepared two comprehensive written reports that can be downloaded:
- Estate Planning for Everyone, July 2009
Estate planning — everyone needs it, regardless of financial wealth — and yet, not many want to think about it and even fewer make decisions and create plans. This summary describes aspects and the process of estate planning. It is not exhaustive; it is meant to raise questions that lead to conversations. We hope these conversations help you focus on what matters most to you. As you review your planning, reflect on the goals you have set for yourself, your family, and your community. This summary includes descriptions of some of the most common planning tools and basic administrative requirements.
- Long-Term Care Planning, July 2009
Studies show that two out of every five people reaching age 65 need some type of long-term care. In New Hampshire and Vermont, the annual cost of nursing home care ranges from $195 to $330 per day. Some people pay over $200,000 per year for 24/7 home care. Most health insurance and Medicare does not cover the cost of long-term care. Recent federal legislation changed Medicaid eligibility rules to make it more difficult to qualify. New Hampshire is considering more cuts to reign in Medicaid spending. This report provides an understanding of the components involved in long-term care planning: Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, and estate planning. It explains how recent changes in the law and future trends affect tomorrow’s long-term care consumer. Recent changes made under the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, in New Hampshire and Vermont are discussed.
