- Summary of Article in the Michigan Bar Journal: A holistic Medicaid plan requires advice and advocacy well before, during, and after the Medicaid application process. At times, a nursing home may be the most appropriate setting for a senior, but it need not be the final solution.

Rather, it should incorporate Medicare, possible veteran’s benefits, long term care insurance, and appropriate care needs, Author, Holistic Medicaid Planning, Michigan Bar Journal, State Bar Of Michigan, 2014
