My understanding of the new Medicaid eligibility requirements is that there is NO ASSET TEST. So your estate won’t loose your home(s) when you die.
Can anyone confirm this?
Under the new relaxed eligibility requirements, all they look at is your income, not assets. You can own even several homes including vacation homes, vehicles, etc. As long as your income is below a certain number, you can qualify for Medicaid.

That means millions more will qualify for Medicaid. However, where is the part that says they won’t take your house and other assets when you die to re-pay what they spent on you? They are not going to spend millions and not have that “catch 22” that they can’t take your house and other assets.
I would have to see it in writing from them that they won’t take your assets and then I wouldn’t believe them - you can keep your healthcare if you like it - that was a lie and they WILL come after your assets after you die if you are on Medicaid, just like they do now.
