My mother is currently in a rehab facility in florida recovering from surgery. She has Florida Blue insurance. Her stay is 100% covered days 1-20 and then$160 copay days 21-160 and then covered again after she meets her $5,900 out of pocket maximum. Her only income is social security and her only asset is her mobile home valued at around $120K with a remaining principal balance of $24K. Would she be eligible for Medicaid to cover the copays in the Rehab facility and possible long term care she may be facing.

Then dig up five years of financial records to prove she didn't give anything away. Find bank statements, tax returns, vehicle & mobile home titles and loan documents and I hope she did not do a lot with cash, because they want receipts. The facility should have a financial aid person who can help you.

Pearl, you would need to call Florida's Medicaid office as each State has its own rules, regulations, and programs. And those programs keep changing depending on State budget cuts or increases.
