My friend's husband required home health care after a stroke. The wife has a full time job. They hired a lawyer who deals with elder care issues. They provided tons of required paperwork and were living with the Medicaid guidelines. They are in NY. They were Medicaid pending for 6 months and then were told they were accepted as being Medicaid eligible. Now and another 6 months later they are being told that the state is reversing their decision for the original 6 month period. They do have their lawyer working on this but I am posing this question as I know there are experts here regarding Medicaid and am wondering if this is possible. They did hear that the state does not have enough money.

Just makes my blood boil when I hear stories like this and I see young, abled body people collecting disability because they are entitled.
Just doesn't make any sense that they can renege on an approval.
