My husband and I are both in poor health and unable to work. He is awaiting a disability appeal hearing. Right now we have no income at all and no health insurance. My father passed away in April leaving me some money which we have been living on. By law we now have to get health insurance.If we apply for medicaid will they take what is left of my inheritance?
Hopefully your husband disability income will come in soon so that he can purchase health insurance.
States differ on what they allow and don't allow. Since your husband is awaiting a disability appeal hearing, you are likely dealing with an attorney for that. If this attorney can't advise you on what you can do as far as your assets and Medicaid, he or she should be able to suggest someone.
Good luck. Please let us know how it works out for you.
