Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

Re: medicaid and probate

Medicaid has the right to file a claim against the estate of a decedent, just like any other creditor. After payment of administrative expenses, funeral expenses of up to $6000, and expenses of final illness (last 60 days), most claims go into the pot to be paid out of the remaining assets. Some assets are not subject to creditors, such as the decedent's homestead, if passing to his or her relatives. Hopefully this answers your question, as I do not understand your comment "of whom the house was never deeded".
