Please see an attorney for advice on estate planning. For long term care Medicaid a 5 year lookback period normally applies. So the transfer of funds to a Trust or elsewhere might not be helpful if it occurs during the lookback period. Expert advice is crucial.

@celia16 Ah yes, the lookback - but the trust still holds the assets, they have not gone to beneficiaries yet. Hence the assets are first used for one's support, and the remainder passes to the beneficiaries. One of my best friends is navigating these waters right now, Mom's needs were covered and the last bits will be distributed soon after he is sure all final bills are paid,
