Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Virginia

proceeds from will

My mother's brother died in 12-07 and named her as one of his beneficiaries in his will. She is on Medicaid. Will she be able to accept the proceeds of the sell of his property? Or will it go to the government? If so, is there a way for her to keep the money by signing her share over to me or another one named in the will?
