My dad has been on medicaid the past 8 years. He is 69 and and also has medicare and attends va hospital for care. He is about to inherit about 29k. He longer needs to retain medicaid. He would like to use his inheritance to buy and newer car and some other things. He is not interested in any SNT trust. His only concern is would medicaid try to take his inheritance for the past services he received the past 8 years while on medicaid? Or do they just claim what ever is left after he passes?
Thanks, Diane
This will put the question back up to the top and maybe someone with experience will see it and have a better answer.
Tell Dad not to spend that money just yet.
