- Q. My 100 year old Mom is living at home with a 24 hour caregiver.Her home is in a life estate with myself and 2 sisters
- A: You won't. We never recommend that people pay their parent's medical bills, because there is no guarantee that you will be reimbursed. If your mom cannot afford the care, I would look into getting her on Medicaid.
- Q. Am I responsible for my mom's, she lived in my home, medical debt after she has passed away ? I live in NJ
- A: It depends who signed the contracts.
- Q. How do I get my brother to pay some of my elderly parent's expenses - I can't afford the cost of care by myself.
- A: You don't. Apply for Medicaid. Do NOT cover the bills out of your own pocket, you will NOT be reimbursed. Apply for Medicaid and they'll cover the bills.
