MaineCare Spend Down

Are you faced with a deadline to qualify your loved one for MaineCare? Walker Cremations, Funerals and Gatherings has expertise in establishing irrevocable funeral accounts. Our preplanning specialists understand that time is of the essence with a MaineCare Spend Down. If you don’t have your application in on time, it could mean paying more health care bills than necessary.
The best way to establish an irrevocable funeral account is to call us at our Conroy-Tully Walker locations in Portland and South Portland at (207) 773-6511 and at our Black-Heald Walker Location in Springvale at (207) 324-4104 and set up an appointment with one of our funeral directors.
It is often possible to pay for a funeral and have those funds considered a non-asset for MaineCare evaluation. MaineCare situations may change, but our documentation will always comply with requirements at the time the arrangements are made. As of 2024, an irrevocable mortuary trust of up to $18,000 is considered an exempt asset under MaineCare.
The trust can be funded and the specific details of the funeral can be planned from the big to the little details. We’ll be honored to walk you through this process.
Their team are always so kind, patient and helpful. A professional funeral home with a personal touch that makes you and your loved ones cared for.
