Q: Tenncare request for release
Recently got a Tenncare request for release form and had fill out along with sent a death certificate by email for my mother that passed in nursing home with Tenncare Choices. They emailed me back since I am a disabled that they assert my estate when I pass. They will not let me know how much my mother owned so I could try at least pay back. Any advice or someone to help??

A: If you are disabled, you do not have to pay anything to Tenncare while you are alive and remain disabled. It would be easier on YOU to just let the make a claim against your estate when you pass.
