Guest guest Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 I am confused by your post. Your brothers can create a payback trust which would allow them to be eligible for Medicaid. However, if they have the wrong kind of trust they can private pay, and then be eligible for Medicaid when they deplete their assets. My advice is to get a good attorney who knows about disability funding. Many on this group can suggest someone good. I have a list of attorneys who specialize in this area, if you like.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Hi Nora, is correct. Your brothers' trust can be converted to a so called 'pay back' trust and they will immediately be eligible for Medicaid. The payback trust is a type of special needs trust that can be created with funds that are deemed to be owned by the beneficiary. If your brothers are under a guardianship, you will likely need permission of the probate court to make the changes necessary to qualify them for Medicaid. The greatest benefit of a payback trust is that it allows the beneficiary to qualify for Medicaid and often stretches the funds so that they last the lifetime of the beneficiary allowing him or her to live a higher quality life. You can look on my firm's website: www.ssvlegal.com for more information on payback trusts. If you can't access the website, call Dawn at 312 220-9112 and ask her to fax, email or mail a copy of information about this type of trust to you. Rubin's website is also likely to have information about this option. Your typical attorney is not likely to know about this payback trust option. You will want to consult with an attorney who specializes in special needs planning and preferably one who is a member of National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys, Academy of Special Needs Planners or Special Needs Alliance.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Terrie and and all, Thanks for the responses to Nora's question about her brothers. What caught my eye in your post, Nora, was the comment that because your brothers are privately paying for their 'beds' they are not considered 'full beds'. Does an agency get more money from a Medicaid-funded placement than they do thru privately paying clients? That seems weird to me, I'd have thought it would be the same amount. I'm guessing you're confused on this too. Does anyone know the answer to this question?

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 What is a shame is that no one at the nursing home told your dad that instead of spending down on private pay, he could have transferred the funds to a qualified special needs trust called a 'c2biv' trust for the benefit of a special needs child or grandchild. Many people are not aware of this Medicaid exception to the transfer of asset rules. If the trust is written correctly, the transfer is not subject to a 5 year look back period and the parent or grandparent will immediately qualify for Medicaid to pay for his/her nursing home care and the disabled family member can enjoy the benefit of the funded trust. Note - this type of trust is NOT the same as a 3rd party special needs trust. If your parents or grandparents are elderly, they may want to sign a power of attorney that indicates their wish to transfer their funds to a c2biv trust to qualify them for Medicaid to pay for their nursing home care sooner rather than later. When a power of attorney has this special power, you can protect the assets even if your parent or grandparent is no longer competent to direct the transfer him/herself.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Hi all: Some really interesting postings and responses yesterday...thanks to our many experts who contributed. Meanwhile, I am checking out the answer to two questions: 1. Does the state differentiate between a private pay client versus someone who is receiving state funding? 2. Can an agency legitimately charge more for a private pay client than what they get for the same supports and services at the state rate? I am guessing someone in this group has the answer, but I am checking with DHS/DDD... I will get back to the group when I get a response. Ellen Ellen Garber Bronfeld egskb@...
