How will Public Aid benefits affect my loved one's Illinois nursing home abuse claim settlement?

 

A: As a result of the Illinois Nursing Home Care Act, if you or your loved one receives a settlement from an Illinois nursing home abuse claim, in most cases you are not required to repay Public Aid for the benefits you have received. In addition, it will not affect your eligibility to receive Public Aid benefits in the future.

Understanding how various factors, such as Public Aid benefits, will affect your loved one's Illinois nursing home abuse claim settlement generally requires the help of an experienced Chicago nursing home abuse attorney.

Any claim can be complicated but some components can make an Illinois nursing home abuse claim even more complex. Public Aid benefits are made available to help patients pay their nursing home bills.

It may help to know that when a patient pursues an Illinois nursing home abuse claim, Medicare requires reimbursement. There is protection provided to patients who receive Public Aid benefits, though.

This is just one example of why an experienced Chicago nursing home abuse attorney can be valuable to your case. An attorney understands the laws and regulations surrounding nursing home abuse, and all of various components involved in your case.
