Episode 4 Jointly Owned Assets

In episode 3, I discuss assets in general and what Medicaid counts and what they don't count.  Here, I discuss one of the more confusing aspects of Medicaid (especially in the public's eye) is jointly held assets.  How does Medicaid look at an asset that is owned by the applicant and another person.  

Medicaid views it differently if the other owner is a spouse or a non-spouse.  They even look at it differently depending on the asset and even how the asset is titled.  This episode jumps into one of the more complicated issues in Medicaid.  Let me know what you think at [email protected].
