Saric Consulting

Saric Consulting Saric Consulting is dedicated to assisting you and your loved ones through the Illinois Medicaid process for nursing home and supportive living facilities.

If the time has come to place your loved one in a skilled nursing facility or supportive/assisted living facility, we can answer your questions and review your individual case to discuss the option of applying for Medicaid. Illinois recently removed the long term care caseworkers from the local offices making it more difficult to ask questions and talk to someone regarding the steps needed to appl

y and be approved for Medicaid. With 18 years of State service and 8 years specializing in Nursing Home and Supportive Living assistance, we are here to assist and guide you every step of the way, from application to decision. The Medicaid process for Long Term Care assistance in Illinois has changed due to the SMART Act of 2012 as it began to enforce the laws from the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005. Illinois was one of the last states to enforce these new rules causing longer look back periods, stricter rules on gifting and personal care contracts and limitations on prepaid burials. It also increased the criteria for which cases are reviewed by the Office of Inspector General. Saric Consulting can be there to guide you and your loved one through this detailed process. We can review your specific case and identify available resources potentially available to your situation. We can assist in gathering information needed to quality for the assistance and submit the application and all supporting documents to the correct office to make sure that the application is complete and ready for a decision in the most direct and timely manner. The Medicaid process is very detailed and overwhelming. Let Saric Consulting walk you through this process, step by step so you are prepared for what is to come. Let us worry about the paperwork and deadlines while you focus on the needs of your loved ones.

Thank you to all who attended the 2026 Rural Aging Summit! It was huge success with many engaged seniors and their families learning so much about aging with knowledge and planning ahead.

Thank you to all the Saric Consulting team (current and retired) who made the day run smooth. A special thank you to Julie and Stacy, you took Sara's vision and made it happen! The hours you spent working with the vendors and planning for every little detail made this event successful for everyone. You're all amazing!

Thank you to John Roustio with 618 Digital Marketing for all the digital material (banners, flyers, vendor forms, pamphlets, scavenger hunt cards)!

Thank you Amy with Amy Gould Photography for capturing the day!

Thank you to all the vendors and speakers who spent their day with us. The long term care community is a special group of selfless and dedicated workers who spend their lives helping the aging community and never forget the smiles and hugs from those they serve when that is all the patient or client has left to give. ❤️

Sara, Lindsey and Stacy attended the IL NAELA Unprogram at the Bloomingdale Golf Club on Friday.

This semi-annual event gives attorneys the opportunity to learn more about the niche services offered by Saric Consulting. Some firms are choosing to complete their planning, but don't want to deal with the multiple state agencies and the frustrating Medicaid application process. At Saric, we are a liaison between families, facilities, State agencies and their attorney. We navigate the system for them, submitting the mounds of paperwork and meet the numerous deadlines so they don't have to.

Saric has become a trusted partner for many attorneys and their families over the last 11 years. They were able to connect with some wonderful ladies from Dodd & Wambold for dinner Thursday night, the first firm who believed in Saric Consulting over 11 years ago! Thank you, Heidi and Kelly, for joining us for dinner, we enjoyed the laughs and great food!
