Why a Fiscal Conservative Helps Families Qualify for Medicaid Without Losing Everything
At first glance, it might seem contradictory: how can someone who believes in personal responsibility and limited government assistance help families qualify for Medicaid while preserving their assets?
Today, I want to explain why these two ideas are not at odds—and why, as a fiscal conservative, I proudly help hardworking families protect what they've earned through strategic Medicaid Planning.
Personal Responsibility and the Realities of Long-Term Care
I firmly believe in the values of hard work, saving, and planning for the future. People should strive for self-sufficiency.
However, the reality many Americans face is harsh: even those who have worked, saved, paid taxes, and planned responsibly are often confronted with the overwhelming costs of long-term care. In Kansas, the average monthly cost of nursing home care is nearly $8,000. Even the best financial plans can be wiped out within months.
Is it fair that a responsible saver should lose everything, while someone who never saved receives the same care for free?
I don't think so.
And that’s why I do what I do.
Medicaid Planning Is About Duty—Not Exploiting the System
The clients we serve at Advanced Legal Planning aren’t looking for a handout.
They are people who have played by the rules their entire lives. When faced with devastating care costs, they have the right—and in my view, the responsibility—to use the laws available to protect their families.
The Medicaid system isn’t perfect. As a conservative, I might prefer that it be structured differently. But as long as the current rules exist, families who worked, saved, and contributed should not be punished for doing things the right way.
Medicaid Planning is about:
Protecting the savings you worked a lifetime to build
Ensuring your spouse isn’t left financially vulnerable
Honoring your responsibility to your family, faith, and future generations
All while following the law exactly as written.
Protecting What Matters Most

This is not about exploiting loopholes.
It’s about ensuring fairness for those who spent a lifetime contributing to the system.
As a Christian conservative, I see it as a sacred responsibility to protect the future of families who have lived responsibly, worked hard, and honored their commitments.
