Find Care & Housing
So you trying to find out about exemptions & exclusions to MERP, right?

“provision of Care” isn’t a category for either that I’ve ever run across.

What exactly is the backstory…. Like who’s on Medicaid?
What type of Medicaid?
Do they have exempt property? How r property costs being dealt with?
Are / Is there spouses, heirs, caregivers who are trying to figure out what’s what after Medicaid person dies?
OR
is this all an after the fact situation… like elder is dead and you have gotten a NOI (notice of intent) for MERP?

they are very very different things to deal with. So what’s the story?

Bumping this up.

When I searched "Provision of care exemption", I get the healthcare act where everyone needs to be covered. So not sure what that has to do with Medicaid Estate Recovery?

The only thing that Medicaid would be able to recoup from is if there is still a house after the recipient passes. The house would then go from an exempt asset to an asset. This is what happened with my Mom. The house had not sold before her death. Medicaid put a lean on it and the lean was satisfied at time of sale.

Now if there had been a Community spouse living in it, they can remain in the house but a lean is still placed. Same with someone who can prove they had been a Caregiver for 2 yrs, is a disabled child or had always resided in the home with the recipient. But in some of these scenarios, the person may have to prove they can pay the bills, taxes and upkeep on the house.

So, if this is not what you mean, you may need to explain a little more,
