There is a rule about being cancelled from your prior coverage that lets you basically start over, so she has that as a benefit. Find a Medicare insurance broker, they do exist, I used one.

Good luck, this sounds like your aunt is in for a bit of a spanking, did she falsify documents? Or is it now renewal time and she's contemplating? Just nosey.
My nephew is on Medicaid as a suppliment to his Medicare. He is allowed more than 2k in his bank account. He is allowed to work. Longterm care has stricter criteria.
As katiekate said, keep that money, you don't know how they will deal with it and you don't want to get caught out and she looses her coverage.
she will likely be required to pay 100% of her own medical care until she has spent it down to $2,000 again.
it might take them a while to get back to her, so she needs to save that money because once that decision comes down it will be retroactive to the date she received the money. Then she will owe the NH for the time interval.
