Is the look back period from the date you sign up with medicaid or from death?

EXPERT Carol Bradley Bursack, CDSGF Aug 2010
When you sign up. It's an eligibilty 'test." While they may not look at all the details until death, you need to be upfront about it or people who received money to make the person eligible may have to pay it back. If you are in doubt at all, see an elder law attorney or estate attorney who knows Medicaid laws well.
