How We Can Help

Medicaid Action Planning®

Through this hands-on process, we will assist with general advice, the complex Medicaid application process, finding the right resources and more.

Senior Consulting

The Sonya Group can help create customized care plans based around your wishes.

Placement for Medicaid Facilities

If you meet Medicaid’s financial eligibility requirements, the program will pay for all or some of skilled nursing or assisted living care.

Annual Medicaid Reviews

Medicaid renewal for seniors must occur at least once every 12 months. This redetermination process ensures you are still eligible to receive Medicaid benefits.

Medicaid Estate Recovery

The rules to the Medicaid Estate Recovery Program (MERP) are complex, and in many instances, you might not be able to protect your estate. However, advanced planning with a professional may be able to protect some or all of your assets. Additionally we help you with the Estate Recovery process after  your loved one passes away.

Healthcare Plans

Seniors have multiple options when it comes to medical insurance, and with the rising costs of healthcare, having just one plan might not provide sufficient coverage. Sonya will refer you to a licensed agent should that be necessary.

My husband & I benefited greatly from the assistance provided to us by Sonya and her staff at The Sonya Group in working through the process of applying for Medicaid. They had the knowledge and patience to walk us through all the paperwork involved and advised us on options available to us to protect some of our assets. They continue to be supportive with our questions regarding Medicare/Medicaid and other age-related issues. I would recommend their services to any family approaching long-term care placement for a loved one.

I understand you advised my brother in-law Randy on how to deal with his parent's Medicaid issues. As I text, his mother is passing from this life. I just wanted to say 'Thank you' for all the help you have given us, above and beyond your original 'contract' with our family. God bless you!
