My mother has about 2 years of savings, a small pension and a small income from Social Security. When she is out of savings will it knock her out of Medicaid by me being on her account? I am also her POA. Should I take my name off her checking account?
I understand having your name of her accounts. Too many banks (Mom's credit union for example) have just too many hoops for to jump through to allow me to write a check to mom's health insurance, or drug prescriptions, or hair dresser. Finally have myself on her accounts too.
Just keep good records if you think there is even an outside chance she will need to go on Medicaid.
