Can I sell my home on Medicaid?

Can I sell my home and move to another state and buy another home there. I'm disabled and on Medicaid.

Your personal residence is exempt from consideration for your Medicaid eligibility. Yes you can sell your house and move. Now the bad news...Assuming you will sell and have cash from the sale, this may make you ineligible in your current state or in another state. Before you make a financial move find some low cost legal aid to see if you can set up the profit from the sale of the house into some type of arrangement that will provide for some of your special needs as well as qualifying you for Medicaid in the new state.

That sounds tricky. probably the best place to ask that question would be Medicaid. Each State has different rules for Medicaid unlike Medicare which is a Federal program.
