A: MassHealth Long-Term Care eligibility requires that applicants meet certain financial, medical, and residency criteria. Specifically, applicants must demonstrate that they need a nursing-facility level of care, which is determined through a clinical assessment. Financially, there are strict income and asset limits that vary depending on individual circumstances such as marital status. To qualify, single applicants generally must have countable assets below $2,000, while married applicants with one spouse in long-term care face different combined asset limits. Additionally, there are asset transfer rules and look-back periods that must be carefully navigated to avoid penalties.
