What is the name of your state? Illinois
I'm SS representative payee (since last year) and power of attorney (for 7 years) for my 90 year old grandmother, who is in a nursing home, and since late last year on public aid/medicaid since her money ran out.
I'm working on filling out the first represtantive payee report for SS. I have good records of everything spent & received.
Here's my question: The report wants to know how much was spent for her on nursing home care, and for personal needs. Well, since we were "spending down" her savings on nursing home care, funeral plans, plus personal needs (RX, medicare supplement insurance, primarily), we spent much MORE than what she actually received from SS last year.
Do I report the full amounts spent on these items, or only up to the amount she received from SS?
Thanks!What is the name of your state?
