Does anyone here know if a Roth IRA is counted as an asset for Medicaid purposes? Or is that determined at the state level?
I'm looking particularly for the rule in Michigan. I saw an indication in one state that it's only considered an asset after a person starts taking distributions after retirement. But I haven't been able to determine if that's a federal rule, or if I even have understood that rule correctly.
Any enlightenment would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
