Re: Loss of home if disabled
Should you go into a nursing home, you will not be allowed to keep certain property. Especially if you end up on medicade. You are only allowed to have something like $50 a month. The remainder of your disability income would go to the nursing home for your care.Any assets you have would be sold to pay for your care.
