What happens after the death of a beneficiary? Is there a Medicaid payback?
After all outstanding bills for any Qualified Disability Expenses are paid, which may include funeral and burial expenses, the remaining balance will become part of the individual's estate and normal probate process.
STABLE accounts established in the state of Ohio are not subject to Medicaid Estate Recovery claims against the STABLE account for total medical assistance paid to the beneficiary after the establishment of the account, unless required by federal law.
