Robin and Ron were a pleasure to work with. My mother had been in a nursing home for over a year before engaging Robin and Ron from Skilled Medicaid Planning. The nursing home was little help with this process, and my dad had gotten some bad advice from a general Lawyer. There are lots of rules when applying for Medicaid, and my best advice is to contact someone that knows the process well, as soon as your loved one enters long-term care. I highly recommend Robin and Ron as those people! We were on an accelerated timeframe so that my dad didn't have to pay another month to the nursing home out of his own pocket. Robin and Ron met us at a local place, and my dad, brother, and I talked through the process. It was overwhelming to say the least. We had to collect a lot of documentation and somehow Robin and Ron turned that into an application to Medicaid. Robin knows the Medicaid process well, and was able to help my parents keep what was left of their assets. Communication is so important with this process, and when my brother or I called or emailed, they always made time to answer our questions, or explain again a payment calculation to the nursing home. They were always polite and professional, and truly wanted to help my family. Words can't describe how grateful my family is for the help that Robin and Ron gave us. When the approval for Medicaid came through, the weight and worry was lifted from our shoulders. Please do not hesitate to contact Skilled Medicaid Planning. Their services are truly priceless when a member of your family enters long-term care and you don't know where to start. Many thanks Robin and Ron for all your help and guidance through this process!

Robin and Ron are a remarkable couple that helped me through a very difficult time I was facing and going through the Medicaid process. I was truly blessed to be referred to them through the nursing home. It didn't matter how many times or how many phone calls it took to help me understand everything they were doing for me. Robin was with me each and every step of the way and I just can't thank them enough. In the end, I found a very special friend. I highly recommend Skilled Medicaid Planning to help you keep the money you work so very hard for. Thank you Robin and Ron. God bless you both for the amazing work you do.

Before I was directed to Robin and Ron, I thought it doesn't matter who I contact for help, they're all alike. Not true! I had one meeting with a lawyer, he didn't know a fraction of what Robin and Ron know. His charge was very high and it would then turn into an hour by hour charge. Also, it was a long drive to his office, Robin and Ron came to me. They took my stress level to zero. Thank you is not enough for what they did for me.

When my mom got sick, we did not know what to do, a rep from the nursing home recommended Robin at Skilled Medicaid Planning, and I have no idea how I would have survived without her. She laid everything out for us in plain English, and took care of all the fine details. She was the most important thing for us in helping my Mom.

Robin and Ron are wonderful people and they helped my dad and I navigate the complex medicaid application. They explained everything to us so that we could understand what we needed to do to get coverage for my mom. They acted on our behalf when phone calls needed made, and they followed up with the people when they didn't return my calls. We would never have been able to do this without them.

My world turned upside down on November 19, 2022. My husband had a hemorrhagic stroke. From the first nursing home admission, not much information was given us, and it didn't work out; he had continued medical problems was admitted to a local hospital and on discharge sent to a second nursing home. The admission director explained about applying for Medicaid. I believe that God puts special people in our path; in her office was a brochure for Robin Wolfe, Skilled Medicaid Planning. I immediately called them, planned a meeting – what a Godsend and blessing they turned out to be. Along with turning out to be special friends. There is so much I could say about their extensive knowledge (especially with Robin's tenure with the Department of Human Services). They alleviated all my concerns and problems. They are such caring individuals answering all your questions, even repeatedly. They are the right people to get your Medicaid application correctly and professionally completed. I received it back quickly. Robin and Ron, I was blessed to find you and to be able to have you as my friends. God bless you both!

When my parents reach the point of needing personal care, and then Skilled Nursing care, first my mother, then eventually my father, we soon realized how quickly this would deplete everything they had work for. We thought there were no other options; as with most things in life, what you don't know can hurt you. This is when a personal care home director recommended that we seek advice from Skilled Medicaid Planning. When we met Robin and Ron, they were the most personable and professional people you could ever meet. They assured us that we did have other options. This is where Robin's expertise really shines. She developed a clear and concise plan for us to follow, and guided us through the Medicaid Eligibility process, all the while keeping my parents best interest first, and preserving as many of their assets as possible. This helped give us peace of mind during a difficult time and focus on family when they need you the most. We are forever grateful for their service to our family. Thank you, Robin and Ron.

Robin and Ron (Skilled Medicaid Planning) were a true blessing. We don't know what we would have done without them, just looking at the paperwork was overwhelming to say the least. Every aspect of the process to get Medicaid for our mother was done efficiently and expeditiously. All our questions were answered and explained until it was fully understood. Robin took an entire box of “stuff” and sorted, filed, and made sense of it. We were told how we could protect mom's few assets and do a “spend down". In the end, everything was filled out, signed, and filed. Robin and Ron saved us many days of worry and lost nights sleep knowing things were in knowledgeable hands. Robin left us with a detailed guideline to reference as time goes on, and she continues to answer any questions we have.

In short, they were life savers, and we can't thank them enough. We highly recommend Robin and Ron!

Going through the Medicaid application process is one of the most daunting things I have had to do! Skilled Medicaid Planning helped beyond words. They took some of the stress out of a very stressful time. I was already dealing with the stress of my father’s unexpected illness. I really didn’t have the mental capacity to deal with all the Medicaid rules and regulations. Robin and Ron understood this. They were compassionate, understanding, and extremely knowledgeable. They explained each step until they were sure that my Mom and myself understood. They treated us as if we were a family member that they were helping. The service they provide is worth every penny! I would recommend them to anyone!

We were blessed not only by the exceptional services of Robin and Ron, but also their care and compassion. They are true servants at heart and are professionals at Skilled Medicaid Planning. We would absolutely recommend their services to anyone trying to navigate the Medicaid process. 

Forever Thankful, 

James and Linda Smith

Robin and Ron are an amazing team. I do not know how I would've gotten through this process without them. It is very hard to put a loved one in a nursing facility. They are so compassionate; no matter what question comes up, they patiently explain the answer. Robin is absolutely amazing with all the knowledge she has and very well informed on rules and regulations. I felt very comfortable having her take charge of my mother's information. God love them for what they do to help people. I was in very good hands!

SMP more than exceeded our expectations. Robin and Ron are experienced, knowledgeable, professional, swiftly followed through with all the tasks and gave us personalized care. A truly needed service when we were so overwhelmed and distraught with my mother's needs. SMP got us the help we needed expeditiously. We recommend SMP to everyone we know.

I was truly blessed the day I received a referral for Robin and her husband, Ron. They were the most compassionate and understanding people who were also very knowledgeable, worth every penny and more! I will miss our almost daily phone calls and support during this very difficult time for me and my husband. I would absolutely refer Robin and Ron to anyone needing this kind of assistance. God Bless you both!

I could never thank Robin & Ron enough for all their help.  I don't think I have ever met 2 more caring people who go out of their way to fully explain the Medicaid process.  Every question we had was fully explained, sometimes more than once.  I would absolutely recommend Skilled Medicaid Planning to anyone needing assistance with getting their loved one enrolled in Medicaid.  Many, many thanks!

Cindy D.

I am so pleased with my experience from SMP. Having never gone through this process before, Robin and Ron were so accommodating with the questions myself and my siblings had. Not only did they provide guidance for this process, they also provided emotional support and reassurance during this stressful time for my family. We could not have done this without their instruction.

I am so glad that I found out about Skilled Medicaid Planning, and I highly recommend them. I definitely would have been misguided had I relied on the financial advice that the nursing home gave me. I believe that the nursing home’s priority should be to provide proper medical care and that the asset protection strategies and the Medicaid application process should be handled by someone else who is knowledgable about the entire Medicaid program. Don’t hesitate to hire Skilled Medicaid Planning, as Robin is excellent and is always there to help. 

Sylvia A. Adams

Robin is extremely knowledgeable about the Medicaid process and exceeded my expectations.  How to handle my mom's assets was a top priority.  I highly recommend using Skilled Medicaid Planning at any time during your loved one's Medicaid process, whether it be when you are ready to apply for Medicaid or before.  Robin and Ron were both very compassionate and helpful throughout the entire process. They were also very patient with me and my many questions.

Robin saved us not only time and money, but peace of mind. We could never have successfully managed the stressful process of the Medicaid application without Robin and Ron. Their services were invaluable, and delivered with patience and kindness. I highly recommend Skilled Medicaid Planning.

J. Johnston

My husband had to go into the nursing home suddenly, and I had no idea how to protect myself financially and still pay for him. From my first visit with Robin and Ron, I was comforted by their compassion and knowledge. They never pressured me into hiring them. They just told me they could help, and help they did. They were always available and ready to answer any questions I had. My Medicaid was approved quickly because of Robin's experience and she saved me a lot of money in the “spend down”which I didn't know existed. I highly recommend Skilled Medicaid Planning to help you through a very difficult time. 

L. J. 

A true blessing. Would have never figured it out without Robin's knowledge and never ending help.

I tried to get my wife on the waiver program. I soon became overwhelmed with the paperwork from the State. Skilled Medicaid Planning got the process back on track, and got my wife approved for Medicaid. I am very glad I found them. I highly recommend Skilled Medicaid Planning. 

Bill C.

Exceeded my expectation, and made an extremely stressful time in my life very manageable. Thank you!

D. Lasher

I could not have completed this process by myself. It was a very stressful time and so much paperwork involved and documents to retrieve. They were able to take such a load off my chest and I felt confident that everything would turn out okay. They also saved me a lot of money due to knowledge of the state laws. Communication was always in a prompt, timely manner. I would highly recommend! 

L. Hannan

I'm very thankful to have heard about Robin who has had years of experience in this field. I had no idea where to start. She saved me money and a lot of stress. She compiled a beautiful binder of information and I had no problems. She was always there for me anytime I would call and would return my calls in a timely manner. Robin & Ron are very lovely people. Thank you both! 

B. Webb

I highly recommend having Robin help you apply for Medicaid and do the paperwork. I have been telling people to call them. You can't get better service than Robin and Ron.

J.A. VanDyke

Robin and Ron were very professional. They answered all questions and guided me through the whole process of getting all paperwork to apply for medical assistance for dad. I would highly recommend their help.        

Thank You

I couldn’t have gone through this without the directions and support of Robin and Ron. They made a stressful time a lot easier to get through.

Terri K.

My mom had a stroke in July 2017, I had no idea what was ahead in finding help for my mother. Through my financial adviser, I found a Skilled Medicaid Planning brochure. They helped me navigate the process, and guided me through the entire process. I called them all the time with questions and tears. I could not have done this without their help. I will always sing their praises. Thank you! 

L. Graham

Robin was very  helpful when it came to navigating the Medicaid system to detail which expenditures we could make on behalf of my mother.
