This guide equips advocates with strategies to mitigate the harmful effects of Medicaid estate recovery by examining state practices and identifying opportunities for advocacy. It explores key areas such as narrowing the scope of recovery, enhancing hardship waivers and deferral protections, implementing cost-effectiveness thresholds, and improving public transparency and accessibility through enhanced reporting, training, and notice requirements.
Your determined advocacy can be the difference between going-through-the-motions nursing home care, and the high quality, person-centered care that residents are promised by federal law.
