My mother is in a nursing home and on Medicaid in SC. The house is falling into disrepair and the family cannot maintain. It will likely not sell for tax valuation, and all money will likely go to the state to recover Medicaid costs at her passing. We don't want to jeopardize her Medicaid status and have to refile
I do not believe you can open a trust in your mother's name after she has applied and been accepted on Medicaid. The state and federal governments would want that money to be applied to your mother's care.
