Medicaid Planning with Annuities

The Medicaid penalty for transferring assets is a period of ineligibility and is imposed only for the uncompensated value of a transfer. Therefore, if assets are transferred to a third party, but full value is received in exchange for the assets, there is a transfer for value and no Medicaid period of ineligibility is imposed.
