Medicaid clients are allowed to keep their motor vehicles. [Exception: unusual vehicles such as RVs and antique cars.] In general, after a Medicaid client has lived in a nursing home for a given period (e.g., six months), the State will presume that s/he will not be returning home and, therefore, will expect the client to sell her/his home to pay for medical care. [Exception: the client's spouse or disabled child is living in the home, in which case the State will file a real estate lien to recover assistance provided when ownership is transferred.]
Unless one anticipates becoming ineligible for Medicaid, there is no good reason for a person who has both Medicare A & B and Medicaid to keep a private insurance plan.

The short answer is, you don't. Medicaid (and your fellow taxpayers) expect you to use your assets to pay for your medical care. The only way to "protect" your assets is to transfer them to someone else prior to the time you expect to need Medicaid (for nursing home care, at least 60 months prior), or spend them on some legitimate purpose for which you receive "fair market value."
In general, your cell service must still be active to keep the same number when switching to a different provider.
