Medicaid Estate Recovery & How it works

I’m here from the government and I’m here to help you! 😊
When the government gives you something, they will find a way to take it back.

Under Medicaid (Medi-Cal) rules if a person uses the government system to pay for long term care, most states have a Recovery System. Sounds ominous and it is.
When the Medicaid recipient reaches their ultimate conclusion, any remaining assets, like a house, can be put into a forced sale situation with the proceeds going to the state. This system is designed to keep the government long term care system from going broke.
