In most cases, an 18-year-old living in their parents' home is considered a dependent and their eligibility for Medicaid would be based on their parents' income and household size, unless they meet specific criteria for financial independence. It's important to check with the state Medicaid agency for specific rules and requirements.
In such a situation the children/family members would only be responsible for payment of such debts if they had entered into a written contract/agreement with medical and/or health care providers. If a parent, spouse or relative is unable to sign his or herself into a medical facility or nursing home the signer should be very clear on what, if any conditions are attached for taking the action for the patient. Usually admitting someone to a facility when that someone cannot take the steps themselves will not make the signer obligated to pay expenses.

Ultimately, it is up to the individual family to determine their own expectations and boundaries.
I'm going through this now with my Mom. If he cashes in the annuity, and gives it to anyone as a gift, his eligibility for medicaid will be denied until that amount has been " spent down." In English, let's say the annuity is worth $36, 000, and the average cost for a nursing home is $9,000 a month. If he gives the 36K away, medicaid will make him pay the nursing home himself for 4 months before he is eligible for coverage. The more he gives away, the longer he has to self pay. He would have had to give the money away, or have it out of his name 5 years ago.
