The terms, conditions and prerequisites associated with Medicaid, Medicaid eligibility rules, Medicaid estate recovery, etc., can be confusing and at times frustrating for seniors and their families who are trying to make sense of it all.  The last thing anyone wants to do is to lose one’s homes or assets!

Your primary residence has unique protections under Medicaid, but there are also traps for the unwary such as Medicaid Estate Recovery. There are also many exceptions to the estate recovery rules if you are survived by a spouse or a child with special needs who lives with you. So why worry about all of this, there is a way to protect your house from these problems.
