Irrevocable Medicaid Asset Protection Trusts
Benefits During Life & Upon Death
As you get older, one important estate planning step you must take is to establish a Medicaid trust. A Medicaid trust involves an irrevocable trust where you will list a trustee of your choice. This trustee will manage your home and other assets. As per your request, the trustee will distribute assets how and when you want.
A few benefits of having a properly drafted Medicaid trust include that you can:
- Remain in your home while you are alive
- Keep existing property tax relief (while you remain in the home)
- Be eligible for capital gains tax exclusion
- Change beneficiaries
- Manage trustees
