Well...different people can get different types of aid, but the unfortunate reality is that often after the maximum benefits have been paid by the insurance company, they can actually go after your assets to pay hospital bills. For example, if an elderly person dies after being in the hospital for a long time, when their house is sold, the money may have to go to help pay medical bills instead of being inherited by the children. It is sad that you can work all your life to have a home and some money to leave to your children and it can all be taken away just by your last stay in the hospital.
