[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More states are doing estate recovery after the person on Medicaid dies, meaning they come after the survivors for the thousands $ spent. If it’s trimmed down more states will do this. [/quote]

They don't come after the survivors, they come after the estate which if you read the medicaid forms and information that is part of the deal.  [/quote]

Some states have filial responsibility laws and that is not the same as the Medicaid “look back.” Google “Pennsylvania nursing home filial” and you will see that some entities come after family members.

I cannot see how that is legal except if you sign the forms agreeing to.  My MIL nursing home tried to get me to sign papers saying we'd be on the hook for anything not covered and I said no.[/quote]

Exactly!  You are not fiscally responsible for any other grown adult except your spouse.  Not even your kids.  [/quote]
