And who made this POA?
An Attorney?
Because that doesn't sound quite right to me.
So in this case you must go directly to Medicaid to find out exactly what language they require. Then if she is able to, you amend the POA. If not, more difficult and you will be required to use an attorney to address this.

Durable POA should be done by an attorney, and written FOR you and your elder, putting into the document your wishes.
This isn't something to pull off a computer. Banks won't accept it. This must be done by an attorney with the persons present and examined.

Has your loved one asked you to serve as his/her POA?
