New York.....
I’ve cared for two sisters in my home for the past 20 years. I’m now 75 and fear since we shared the same address I may be responsible for one of my ailing sister’s hospital and nursing home debt because I have power of attorney over her. She’s a pauper because she continues to give every penny to a nephew and never paid her debts. I know Medicaid / Medicare go back 3 months to verify an individual’s spending habits and fear I may be held responsible. Can someone please shed some light on this subject?
