I do not know a lot about Medicaid as only lived her 2 years. During the Medicaid application and related to the 5 year look back you are not allowed to give money away as a gift, is there a set amount that starts as a gift ?
For example:
1: Anything over $100 is classed as a gift !
2: Any total sum of money is classed as a gift ?
As long as my father continues on as he is we are ok with 5 years but if he needs more expensive care we are going to have a problem.
