    No, the Estate Recovery Act pertains only to Medicaid recipients who were over age 55 and received benefits for a certain period of time, or received certain services paid for by Medicaid (nursing home, prescription drugs, and others). Beginning in Jan, 2010, estate recovery is not allowed for Medicare Savings Expenses paid by the state.
