TOPIC:
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court’s recent issued a unanimous decision in the cases of Nadeau v. Director of the Office of Medicaid and Daley v. Secretary of the Executive Office of Health and Human Services, which held that real estate owned in an irrevocable trust was not a countable resource for MassHealth in an application for long-term care benefits, where the Grantor/applicant had reserved for herself, in the trust, the right to reside in the property.
In this program, you will hear from Attorney Lisa Neeley, counselor to one of the parties in this crucial decision, to discuss the case, its implications and planning with irrevocable trusts going forward.
