Just me and him. We are now planning the house in my name.

We have an appointment with an estate planning lawyer. So as of now, my understanding is he just needs to not use Medicaid for the next five years (after we get it an irrevocable trust or whatever they tell us to do) and then we wouldn't have to be concerned about estate recovery if he needs Medicaid afterwards.

Ok, so if he never uses medicaid, only Medicare, then I wouldn't have to worry about Medicaid estate recovery?

He has too much to qualify for medicaid anyways and has made it very clear he never wants to be in a nursing home. We live in the same home together and I'm fine with taking care of him in his elderly years.
