Hi everyone,

I have searched the forums on Medicaid Estate Recovery and have not seen this question.

If a person needs long term care Medicaid and her house has a big fat mortgage on it, will Medicaid come after that property?

Thank you for any information you can provide!
Hi nflgirl,

Medicaid may come after the property though it has a mortgage on it. Nevertheless, it will be better if you could contact an attorney well-versed with the Medicaid laws of your state and check out further details in this regard.

Thanks

Thank you so much James. I am referring to my mother in law's house. My mother was on long term Medicaid and there was a big mortgage on her house and Medicaid did not come after that property. They got her SS and that was it. But I agree in speaking with a well-versed attorney on such matters.

Hi Guest!

Welcome to forums!

The Medicaid may not have come after your property as he may have recovered the whole debt from her social security income.

Feel free to ask if you have further queries.

Hi carmen,

If your mother goes for Medicaid, then there are high chances that they will take away the home.

Thanks
