Family Member Liability for Nursing Home Costs

 
Adult children of nursing home residents are occasionally sued for unpaid nursing home
bills. As prospective penalty periods for transfers are imposed under the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, and facilities review patient files to prepare Medicaid hardship applications, the facilities may more frequently choose to send the files to bill collection firms, to sue responsible relatives. This article reviews some recent lawsuits by facilities against children of nursing home residents.
