[quote:Anonymous Coward 34241302:MV8yMTQ2ODAyXzM2MjY5MzcxXzU3NkMwNUUy] I like (smirk) the fact States can tap into the estates of deceased beneficiaries of Medicaid. Use it and your kids lose their inheritance.... [i]a) OBRA 1993 requires all states that receive Medicaid funding to seek recovery from the estates of deceased individuals who used Medicaid benefits at age 55 or older. It allows recovery for any items or services under the state Medicaid plan going beyond nursing homes and other long-term care institutions. In fact, The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) site says that states have the option of recovering payments for all Medicaid services provided. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) site says at state option, recovery can be pursued for any items covered by the Medicaid state plan. b) The HHS site has an overview of the Medicaid estate recovery mandate which also says that at a minimum, states must pursue recoveries from the “probate estate,” which includes property that passes to the heirs under state probate law, but states can expand the definition of estate to allow recovery from property that bypasses probate. This means states can use procedures for direct recovery from bank accounts and other funds. c) Some states use recovery for RX and hospital only as required by OBRA 1993; some recover for a few additional benefits and some recover for all benefits under the state plan. Recovery provides revenue for cash-strapped states and it’s a big business. Your estate is what you own when you die – your home and what’s in it, other real estate you may own, your bank account, annuities and so on. And even if you have a will, your heirs are chopped liver. Low-income people often have only one major asset – the home in which they live and, in some cases, this has been the family home through several generations. So what this boils down to is: if you are put into Medicaid – congratulations – you just got a mandated collateral loan if you use Medicaid benefits at age 55 or older! States keep a running tally.[/i] http://www.counterpunch.org/2013/02/05/obamacare-a-deception/ [/quote]
Original Message
So according to my husband, on his drive home from work today he was listening to WBAP 820 and a woman called in to tell Sean Hannity that her down's syndrome child was rejected (aged 3 y/o) for ObamaCare with a letter that stated that "They had already filled their quota" and they weren't accepting any more (down's syndrome children).
To make matters worse, she got a separate letter in regards to her (5 year post-cancer treatment) saying that she was denied -- because she has been
classified
as a
pre-existing condition
that has been
'cleared'
.
DID ANYONE ELSE HEAR THIS CALL????
