Does vehicle have to be sold at Kelley blue book value for Medicaid purposes?
My mother is in a nursing home and in the Medicaid application process(ohio). She has one house and one vehicle. My mother wants to sell the car to her grandson. Does it have to be sold at blue book value?
If an asset is sold below book value to a related party it will be seen as gifting and will affect Medicaid eligibility. All the databases are available for review over 5 years and this would show up on state tax records.
