What is a Life Care Plan?
A life care plan is a comprehensive compilation of a client's medical and non-medical needs and costs for the life expectancy of the catastrophically-injured or  chronically-ill client.
 
The life care plan is written using a concise methodology so as to produce a reliable, useful product for our clients. Medical record review, client interview and assessment, home assessment, consultation with health care providers and research on available goods and services to meet the client’s needs are all crucial to the life care planning process.

The cost figures that are included in the life care plan are based on the client's geographical region.  This provides a realistic basis for figuring future costs for the injured client.
