Lynn Socci

Lynn Socci, CMP with over 10+ years as a director of rehabilitation in long-term care. I have extensive experience navigating the Medicaid system and helping families successfully apply. I am also a single mom with three daughters, including one with special needs. I am acutely aware of the unique challenge women face when it comes to preparing for their future. That’s why I enjoy teaching and showing families how they can get care for their loved ones while protecting their assets and wealth transfer.

I’m a Certified Medicaid Planner, which means I help individuals every step of the way through the application process and can circumvent issues. As the guideline and standards setter in the Medicaid Planning field, the CMP™ Governing Board established an ethics panel that has formulated a unifying set of client-first principles to guide Certified Medicaid Planners™ in the proper and ethical practice of the profession
