OK I found the Medicaid handbook online for my state (Wisconsin). Wisconsin does have an very low asset limit, but apparently does not consider an IRA conversion or distribution as income, just an asset transfer. Supposedly though the feds will prohibit states from having asset tests now, so...

Yeah, what about this? Does anyone happen to know if a conversion to a Roth IRA is currently considered to be income for the purposes of Medicaid or other government benefits? I've googled on this for almost an hour now and can't find anything.
