Legal Care for Living with a Chronic Medical Condition

Presented By: Melissa Kallio, JD

When you are diagnosed with a medical condition, such as dementia, Parkinson’s Disease, MS, or cancer, not only do you need to prepare medically, you need to prepare legally. This session will address important topics such as Powers of Attorney, Trusts, and Wills. What legal options are available in planning and paying for your long-term care? How can Medicare, Medicaid, long-term care insurance, and personal care contracts maximize your quality of life?
