Hi Guest,
As your sister has quit claimed the property to you, then you would be considered as the owner of the property. The Medicaid won't be able to come after you for the dollars if you sell off the property. However, your sister may not qualify for Medicaid benefits just after the transfer of the property as there is a look back period of 5 years.
Thanks
