My mother was receiving Medicaid with 24/7 home aides and she passed away and I want to know if and how much Medicaid will take?

Randy M Lish
Answered by attorney Randy M Lish (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Randy M. Lish, Attorney at Law
The amount of the lien depends on how much medicaid paid on your mother's behalf. They can take up to all of the equity in the coop, if they spent that much on her behalf. You will almost always get more money by selling the coop yourself and then paying back medicaid, rather than letting the bank take the property back. Depending on how much your mother's estate owes, you may actually get some equity for yourself by selling it yourself.

Can we stop future purchases on credit other than doing a conservatorship?

A conservatorship may be in order. I assume he is managing his own property and he is unable to do so.

What am I entitled to if my Dad didn't leave a Will?

Your understanding of the law is close but not totally correct. If you are referring to the statue which I believe you are the surviving spouse is the one who is generally, under the laws, entitled first $30,000 after which the estate of the deceased is split evenly between his second and spouse at his death, and his children. Given the circumstances of the length of time, I would suspect it would be very wise for you to seek counsel immediately.
