Cathy Recker, Putnam County Recorder RE:
Transfer on Death Deeds/Medicaid Recovery Effective
Immediately ORC
5302.221 became effective September 29, 2007.
This new statute requires a transfer on death deed beneficiary or
their representative to file a form with the Recorder’s Office in order
to notify the administrator of the Medicaid Estate Recovery Program
whether the property was part of the decedent’s estate subject to the
Medicaid Estate Recovery Program. This
form was not released until February 20th, 2008. Therefore, effective immediately we will require this form
before we can accept the affidavit for recording. This form can be obtained here.
