Here’s how a pooled trust works.
Spend time on the things you love,
not on spend-downs
The Process
The Process
Free consultation
Chat with a friendly care manager in person or over the phone. Discuss your Medicaid eligibility, your home care needs, and your excess income. Then, we’ll explain the next steps to becoming a part of the pooled income trust and how it’ll benefit you or your loved one.
Get approved for Medicaid
If you haven’t yet applied, our partner company can guide you through the Medicaid application process and get started on the disability approval to speed up the trust application process. If you’ve already been approved for Medicaid but have hefty a spend down due to excess income, we can move on to the next step.
Determine your eligibility
Your personal care manager (from the initial consult call) will help you navigate the application process for disability and the pooled income trust. Once you are eligible, your personal account will be established within the pooled income trust.
Use your spend down towards monthly expenses
Your spend down will now be available for daily living expenses covered by the fund. Your personal partner at ECS will manage your account efficiently, transparently and responsibly. Always just a phone call (or email) away, we’re here to service you as a trusted partner.
