can the state take your land and home

Answered 11 years and 10 months ago by nathan forck (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Medicare And Medicaid
The short answer is: "Yes they can."  This is either done with a TEFRA lien while the recipient is still alive or can be done through "estate recovery" after the recipient passes away.   However, that is not necessarily the end of the story and there are some ways to address that situation that might save the home/land.  I suggest that you speak with an elder law attorney who might go into greater depth with you on this issue....

Is she eligible for Medicaid now?  You also said that she "added" her husband's name to her deed in 2008.  Adding her husband's name to the deed would not constitute a "transfer" as long as her name was on the deed as well and has remained on the deed to date.  If this is incorrect, please provide some clarification.  Frankly, there are a lot of different ways that this could go, but I would need at least a few more facts before I was able to render a proper analysis.  The good news is that even if it was a transfer it is possible for that transfer to be cured and not affect her eligibility for Medicaid (assuming she is currently receiving Medicaid benefits)....
