Protecting the Home Property When You Enter a Nursing Home

[@Omikoshi78]

Healthcare in the US is broken, till then I have no shame leveraging every legal maneuver available to avoid going bankrupt. I only wish I lived in Louisiana so I can hire this guy.

Can a home be transferred to a stepchild who provided care for up to 2 years prior to full time nursing care admission?

[@blackdiamond5888]

It sad that people that owns nothing gets off free. It's the people that have are the ones that go to pay. Wow.

[@desamania]

What if the child is a co owner of the home?

[@symranhedderman7301]

Garden centres in the Manchester area

[@yolandadorta8064]

Great information. What if a person sells home and uses money to go to assisted living but money run s out after 2 years and needs to go to nursing home? Can they still apply for Medicaid?

[@barbelvan5499]

Good question! This can certainly get complicated with : if, only if, not until, and or but. One thing and the first thing usually required is that you be physically disabled to a point where you are considered to require high level of care, like really dependent!

[@SandfordSmythe]

There shouldn't be a problem if the money was used for health care issues.

[@TheJosa007]

I wouldn't put none of the money in the coffin. Personal check eh? awesome !! How would anybody know how long mi son has been in my home, What is the 5 . year penalty? How much? Thank you very much

[@rockovahsacralonte570]

Are Medicaid rules different from Medicare rules?

[@KCFlyer2]

Medicare doesn't cover nursing homes.

[@SandfordSmythe]

Medicare pays for rehabilitation and very skilled nursing care for a limited time, with increasing co-pays. Doesn't depend on assests.

[@paularies3282]

​@@SandfordSmythethey won't if you are released from the hospital as "observation" and not admitted. They just f over my father who was admitted and was NOT ready to go home. Sent him home on aspirin and then readmitted him less than 24 hours later as observation so now it's ALLLLLL out of pocket for Rehabilitation. All rules went back to pre-covid. I hate this healthLESS care system.

[@SandfordSmythe]

@paularies3282 Yes, inpatient stay is needed.I would think the hospital staff would know. Part of the stay is to document what rehab would be needed. The system is f...and it is often just a flip of a coin whether you are f...ed

[@SandfordSmythe]

@paularies3282 I hate that. I could see medical Residents doing that. I'm in a bad mood from a similar situation, so Residents, please forgive me. Medicare keeps track of such inappropriate discharges and can cut the hospital's payments rates.

[@mutleysnicker]

Hello, Great information on your vids! I've watched them all.... I've been wondering about Divorce ( To save assets that is!!! lol) So Fred and Wilma are in their 70's--They have well over a 2 million in assets but Fred is not doing well in his health and will need be be put in a nursing home. They have a little time to get things right to protect some assets... My question is can they get a divorce having the majority (If not all) going to Wilma to save all they have worked for before Fred has to go to a Nursing home? Thx

I’m a caregiver and retirement homes are nice in Scottsdale, AZ. And Carlsbad, Ca. Worked in both areas. I like them because your not necessarily lonely. Shame more children aren’t involved with mom, dad, grandma. Most are very proud of their children then the others complained that they never see ya.😂

[@marjorieyarnell1926]

What about a senior ex wife (72) who’s income is alimony from husbands pension and SS and is caretaker ( POA) of elderly husband (88) and he has a stroke and needs to go into a long term facility which would mean Medicaid!

[@emeraldkimble7602]

My bank account was in brothers name and social security number welfare had no record of me with online connections I don’t qualify anyway

[@motowngirl5891]

If you have no money is the only way you can quality for Medicaid

[@SandfordSmythe]

It's more complicated then that.

[@glendacastillo6504]

It's for welfare people. If you work and pay taxes, you don't get help.

[@SandfordSmythe]

​@@glendacastillo6504Until you need it.

[@EntertainMe463]

i know this is from 2018, but what state is he speaking of?

[@Wiszer123]

Louisiana

[@waynecmontgomery]

LOL great joke! I am going to use that joke at the bar.

[@georget9066]

CAN U PONT ME TO SOME ONE IN NYSTATE THANK U

[@americasestateplanninglawy1946]

Don’t have any colleagues there. Any NY attorneys out there who can help?

[@junebug8882]

Explain to me why buy a house when 30 to 40 years you sell it again because you’re elderly? Who of us can live double the life expand 200 years or better in the future🎉🎉🎉🎉2099 from 2024.. What 💪😃

[@paulwarren796]

I WILL NEVER WANT IN A DAMN NURSING HOME . I WILL WNGT IN HOME CARE IN MY OWN PLACE OF DWELLING . PWW

[@DLFfitness1]

This is particularly painful for those who worship money, and things. People end up in nursing homes, because they are no longer able to care for themselves. If you have money you simply pay the bill. If you need assistance, you will have to qualify. Hospital stay, Rehab, Nursing home…. There is nothing mysterious about the process.

good video

What's you own ends up owning you

[@janetsavona3542]

Don't theses politicians have elderly parents that need help Why don't they lessen the criteria

[@americasestateplanninglawy1946]

Good question JS 🤔

[@janetsavona3542]

@@americasestateplanninglawy1946 It's true Why must they be entitled to your whole life savings when you enter a facility for the last 5 years The look back period should be two years

[@SandfordSmythe]

There is not a socialist mood in the US to set this up and raise the huge taxes needed. No one wants to pay for someone else's parents, so the family can keep the money for themselves. If someone has money, they should pay for it.

[@jdemarco]

Because most of them are rich and don't have to worry about money.

[@jdemarco]

@@SandfordSmythe Give me a break. It's ok for our taxes to pay for free health care for illegals who have never put into the system?

[@saulg195]

How are you now?

[@motowngirl5891]

There is no such thing as protecting assests

[@Cathy-xi8cb]

They don't take the house from your spouse. No spouse? Sell the house to pay for your care, because you should pay your way if you have funds. That is what responsible people do.

[@EfilistGoines]

Responsible people don't have kids. Parents can't protect their children from cancer or an auto accident. You never ask to be born and you never created the system you live under. Besides they don't allow assisted "s-word" that would actually protect the elderly from going into the nursing homes in the first place and dying a slow death. Plus while living other people have to suffer due to your existence. A human doesn't exist without harming others, so the least the human race can do is try to make up for the death that they have handed towards their own children without their child's consent. What do you think about that cup of tea?
