In this thread, we'll post current and historical information on utilizing MediCal, a federal program of health care administered by the states, to assist low-income patients with their health care costs.
MediCaid Home - Department of Medicare and Medicaid Services:
www.cms.gov/home/medicaid.asp
An excellent advocacy site for nursing home care which covers aspects of MediCaid in California. Most states have their unique interpretation of the MediCaid program and similar sites can be found through Google.

I'll add more specifics as found. In my own case, I found internet resources, in addition to real world legal help, to be key in preserving my mother's estate in a legal manner in accordance with MediCaid statute, in addition to helping her receiving timely and efficacious medical help during her disease. Knowledge is power.
