How the Recent Stimulus Check Works if Your Loved One is in a Nursing Home
|
Maria’s mother, Annie, lives in a nursing home and is on Medicaid. Annie recently received a stimulus check as part of the third round of Economic Impact Payments that were sent to eligible Americans last month. For most of us, extra money in our accounts is a welcome gift. But for Maria and her mother, it caused concern.
Last year, when the other two checks arrived, Annie was still at home being cared for by Maria. Annie’s condition worsened quickly and she needed to move to a nursing home in late 2020. Now, Maria is concerned that the third check will affect Annie’s Medicaid eligibility and that the nursing home can legally take the check.
