Medicaid and long-term care calculators for your website.
Eight tools: the Illinois Medicaid figures, the private-pay runway, the spouse at home's allowance, and what care will cost by the time it is needed. Each opens in a small window on your site, with its sources and the date it was reviewed, in plain English. No account needed. Each ends by telling the reader to talk with a professional who knows their whole situation. No account needed.

Where a link goes
- The page that explains Medicaid eligibility.
- The intake email, so a family arrives with the runway already run.
- The handout you give at the first meeting, as a link.
Paste it into an article, a resources page, or an email. The calculator stays here, kept current. Every tool below has its link ready; choose once whether copied links open the minimalist window or the full page.

Why firms put these on their sites
- It ends with you
- Every tool closes by telling the reader to talk with a professional who knows their whole situation. The reader is on your site, so the next step is your door.
- Something to do, not just read
- A visitor who runs their own numbers stays longer than one who reads, and the number they get is the question they bring to you. Every figure traces to a statute, regulation, or agency release, and when the law moves, it changes here.
- In plain words
- Every tool opens with a plain-English line on what it does and where it stops, so visitors use it without help and know its limits.
