In this Medicaid lien dispute, plaintiff Estate of Leonor R. Dizon (Estate), by its administrator ad prosequendum, Teresa Finamore, appealed from a Law Division order denying its application to extinguish the Division of Medical Assistance and Health Services' (Division) lien asserted against the Estate's assets pursuant to N.J.S.A. 30:4D-7.2 (estate asset statute). The Division's lien sought the recovery of $214,391.95 in Medicaid benefits Dizon (decedent) received after turning fifty-five years old. The Division filed its lien against all the Estate's assets, including any award the Estate received from its pending survivorship action, N.J.S.A. 2A:15-3. The Estate disputed that a survivorship award was subject to a Division lien under the estate asset statute for all of decedent's Medicaid benefits paid, arguing that its interest in the survivorship claims did not constitute property of the estate at the time of decedent's death, as required by the statute. Instead, it contended, the Division was only entitled to reimbursement from an award for decedent's tort-related medical expenses for her injuries pursuant to a separate statutory provision specifically addressing third-party liability recovery, N.J.S.A. 30:4D-7.1. The court concluded the Division's lien was valid against all the Estate's assets under the estate asset statute, which included any survivorship action award, and therefore affirmed the trial court.
