look at the NV LTC Medicaid application site to see what’s required.
A big hurdle for moving from 1 State to another State often will be what the new State requires to be considered a “resident” of the State and so able to apply for a State run program for their residents like Medicaid is.
& this unfortunately is all over the place as far as what the 50 states do. Some are all ok if you have the prior States drivers license or ID but do an intent (to become a resident)form within 30 days of entering the state. Others require the new State DL or IL, as well as bank statements showing an address in the new state. Some States (looking at you TX) have pretty intense documentation requirements to get a new License.
another glitch is if she owns a home in CA. Homestead will be exempt asset for CA but won’t be for NV. Ditto for autos but those you can easily register in the new state. On homes what seems to happen is property will need to be be put up for sale by a CA Realtor with an MLS listing. No Sale By Owner nonsense.
Families do get their elders moved but it will involve work on your part to get all the required done to the satisfaction of the new State. You may need to private pay for a bit till residency established. Good luck in your quest and please do let us know what happens as we all do learn from each other.
Just a thought… if elder is still somewhat able to easily move & adjust… look to see if there are health care & EMS agreements (code sharing) between health care providers on the CA & NV side. I know TX used to do this for up by Wichita Falls & over by Sherman with OK counties across the River as the OK side is beyond really bleak. If CA / NV do this perhaps get your elder moved to a NV place in this zone so she’s good and then segueways to NV eligible and moves closer 2 u if need be.
