 The Urgent Case for Elder Care Planning

There’s a coming elder care crisis in our country. Everyday 10,000 people turn 65. Medicare and health insurance only cover therapeutic medical services. Yet, elders often need basic assistance with getting out of bed, getting dressed, and getting a healthy meal. As their needs change, they rarely can afford the additional help out-of-pocket with their fixed income and limited resources.

Financial assistance is available in many forms. For example, we track over 450 different programs that help seniors afford their care and continue to live independently or in care communities. However, these programs are poorly known and even harder to access. Families often give up in frustration trying to navigate the bureaucracies. Further, innovative financial products can help families to stretch their resources while a wide range of new information technologies are making elder care safer and more affordable.

We help families make the most of the available benefits, financial resources, and technologies to make a sustainable and affordable long term care plan. We are a family business committed to helping aging Americans. We are an integrated team of technology, benefits, financial and legal advisers.

Our clients are deeply appreciative. Through working with their ECR Planning benefits adviser, they were able to discover new programs and access new financial assistance for their parents and loved ones. ECR Planning fees are more affordable than an elder law attorney or specialized Medicaid planners, while our expertise is broader and more specific to middle and lower income seniors.
