Should my Mother in Law apply for HCBS in Maryland or West Virginia?

We're trying to keep her out of a nursing home, but need help … her official residence and her doctors are in Maryland. However, for the last few years she's been living with her daughter in West Virginia 10 miles from the MD border, which is where in-home care can be provided. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You asked a similar question a few months ago and got responses. Your question needs to be asked to Medicaid. I really don't think where she has property or Doctors has anything to do with it. She is now living in W. Virginia. I will point out that if its Medicaid based services, then she may need to use Medicaid doctors in the state she sets up residency in.
