Questions families ask

What are Texas's nursing facility Medicaid income and asset limits in 2026?

For 2026, the special income limit for Texas nursing facility Medicaid is $2,901/month, with a $2,000 asset limit for a single applicant. Income above the limit generally requires a Miller Trust (Qualified Income Trust) to still qualify.

What is Medicaid Estate Recovery, and does it affect a Fort Worth family's home?

Texas's Medicaid Estate Recovery Program (MERP) can seek reimbursement from a deceased Medicaid recipient's probate estate for long-term-care costs paid by the state, including nursing facility care and some STAR+PLUS HCBS services -- but only after death, and with protections for a surviving spouse or dependent children.

What does assisted living cost in the Fort Worth area?

The 2024 CareScout Cost of Care Survey puts Texas's statewide median assisted living cost at $5,250 a month. No primary source publishes a Fort Worth- or Tarrant County-specific figure separate from that state median, so local pricing likely runs close to or somewhat above it given the metro's growth.
