I’m not on mortgage. Also I do have my 19 year old son with autism spectrum.

Find Care & Housing
Generally, Medicaid in most states only covers LTC and not MC. He would have to qualify medically as needing LTC and then financially. MC is custodial care, which is not what Medicaid covers.

When a person has received Medicaid then passes, a lien is put on a home that they own. Then the next heirs or owners must satisfy the lien when they take ownership.

In most states the "look back" period is 5 years, but in some it is 2.5. You don't say what state your Dad lives in. It may not be a bad idea to talk to a Medicaid Planner for his home state so that you get all your facts straight when the time comes to apply. Hopefully you are your Dad's PoA.

These are really attorney questions for your own state laws and what the Medicaid recovery would be. Also as to how the properties are "held" and when these quit claims were done. I would refer you to an elder law attorney. Take all deed and filings copies for things of interest. I don't quite see the relevance of a son who has autism, but you can check on that as well.
