MEDICAID: Financial Characteristics of Approved Applications and Methods Used to Reduce Assets to Qualify for Nursing Home Coverage

Notes: Data for four counties were from applications submitted during state fiscal year 2012, while data for two counties were from applications submitted between July 1, 2012, and December 31, 2012. Within federal standards, states may elect not to count certain resources toward financial eligibility. Thus, the amount of noncountable resources reflects the value of the applicant’s resources that the state elected not to count during eligibility determination. Consistent with how Medicaid eligibility is determined for coverage of nursing home care, noncountable resources for married applicants include those of both the spouse and the applicant. Of the 294 approved applicants whose files we reviewed, 218 owned at least one noncountable resource. For 23 of these 218 approved applicants, there was no information available on the value of their noncountable resources. Files for the remaining 195 applicants included information on the value of at least one noncountable resource; all known values were summed to determine the amount of noncountable resources per applicant. However, if an applicant’s file did not contain a value for every noncountable resource the applicant owned, then the amount of their noncountable resources may be underestimated. Percentages shown do not add to 100 due to rounding.
