Mother Passed Away. Left Behind Some Stuff But Medicaid Has Sent A Letter. Idk What To Do. Help!?

My mother passed away recently. She left behind a mobile home in a trailer park, and a worn out 18 year old car. I was unaware of any medicaid bills or hospital bills because she was secretive about her affairs.

She lived her last days at home on hospice, with only her BF (Full time), my wife (took time off from work during the days) and I(in evenings after work) taking care of her other than the weekly hospice check in visit.

Before she passed, she gave me the title to her car and my brother the title to her mobile home. She has a long term live-in boyfriend that is still alive and lives in the mobile home. She technically left him nothing.

The plan was to put the home in my brothers name and let the BF continue living there until he no longer can/wants to live alone.

I, with no knowledge of any bills or collections went ahead and took the title/death certificate to the DMV and had the car put in my name because it was moved to my house, and we have to have tags to have it parked here.

There was no will. And she had about $500 in her bank that i know about. Although i have no way of getting to or verifying this i dont think.

Yesterday i checked her mail and got a letter addressed to my mothers estate (not addressed to me or my brother). And its asking for name of executor, value of estate, ect. I wasnt sure if to fill this out on her behalf or not, i do not know the value of what she owned, i do not know what she owes. I wasnt named an executor (had to google this to even figure out what it was)

I was always told (by her)she didnt qualify for medicaid because she owned too much. She couldnt live in a assisted living facility because of this. They literally made her leave the one she was in, because Medicare wouldnt cover but so many days and she didnt have medicaid coverage for a longer stay in assisted living, nursing home, nor even a nurse to help her during the day. But medicaid mustve done something to have sent this letter.

Id like to possibly keep her car (even as rough of shape as its in), its maybe worth $2k id say going off kbb and nada, but at least needs that much in work to be a drivable car as its in bad shape (flat tires, busted windshield, has been sitting in the yard 10 years, ect.)

The mobile home is also in not great shape (hvac broken, floors need replacing from poorly fixed leaks, needs paint, roof ect) but we'd also like to find a way to keep the home so moms long term BF doesnt have to leave the home hes lived in for 15 years.

The car has been moved to my name but the home has not been moved to my brothers name yet. Hes now nervous about doing this. And im now nervous about already having done this.

Ive never dealt with this side of things and have no idea what to do. Ive done some research but this has left with more questions than answers.

I read dont call medicaid and ask whats owed because then whoever calls in is on the hook for the bills. Same with filling out the letter.

What should i do?

Whats the best way to keep the home for the BF to live in? Hes been with her for 30 years, took care of her full time in her last years.

Whats the best way to keep her last car? As rough as it is, its the last thing she really cared about, and id like to bring it back to life one day.

Sorry if this post is all over the place as its got me pretty anxious. Thanks in advance for any help
