My mother and I sold both of our homes to buy a condo after she broke her hip. The condo is in my name. Can Medicaid recover my condo?

No, Medicaid cannot attempt to recover from you, they can only attempt to recover from your mother’s estate. What they can do, if this happened within the last 5 years and mom needs Medicaid, is refuse to give her Medicaid because she gifted you the money—in Medicaid’s eyes, she sold her home and gifted the proceeds to you since her name isn’t on the house you bought.
