My parents live with me for more than 10 years now. They were previously approved for Medicaid (for 5 years) but for some reason after submitting the annual property value of their house abroad they got denied. The house cannot be liquidated as one of my siblings family is now living there ever since my parents moved here in US with me. My mom got hospitalized recently and the charity care applied her again for Medicaid. They asked for same info and I would think her old records still show they own a property abroad. I’m worried she wont get approved again.

There is also an equity limit
"In 2013, the minimum home equity limit is $536,000. In other words, your must have more than $536,000 in equity interest in your home before Medicaid must deny payment for your long-term care services. "
I don't think the above is your problem, I think its because Mom has property that she has not resided in for years and can be sold.
