Wispact is a non-profit private organization that caters to assisting those with disabilities. Based in Madison, Wisconsin, Wispact creates special needs trust accounts for beneficiaries so that they can receive on-going services.
How can wispact be useful for beneficiaries with special needs?
Wispact can be important for those with special needs because it preserves their assets while still being able to receive public benefits like Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
How are assets preserved and not counted towards your income?
In the state of Wisconsin, those with special needs cannot exceed a limited amount of assets before they lose eligibility for certain public benefits. Medicaid, for example, has strict limits that are imposed on assets for elderly or disabled applicants, this is usually $2,000 for an individual. A special needs trust, such as Wispact, exempts assets in the trust from being counted towards Medicaid or SSI eligibility.
Wispact can help in the long run by holding and managing your assets for your benefit. Beneficiaries can access public benefits while maintaining resources for personal and supplemental needs.
