Abstract
In America, plaintiffs in tort settlements receive more benefits, including Medicare benefits, than plaintiffs in worker's compensation cases. A properly established Medicare set-aside trust can guarantee that a disabled worker's Medicare benefits will be available after a worker's compensation settlement. This article discusses the theory behind a Medicare set-aside trust and tips for properly using it.
