Your state's pack. New issue every Monday. Bookmark it. I built this for the Nevada T&E solo who knows the NRS probate framework cold but still loses an afternoon a week tracking the moving Medicaid pieces — and who needs to keep the generous homestead and the community-property basis math straight.
For licensed attorneys. This pack is general legal information and professional commentary for practicing attorneys — it is not legal advice, does not apply to any specific matter, and creates no attorney-client relationship. Verify every authority against the cited primary source before relying on it with a client. Published by Mike Moss, a Utah-admitted attorney, as an AI-enablement information product; it is not an offer of legal services and is not a representation that the author is admitted to practice in your jurisdiction.
Three developments I think actually matter to a Nevada T&E solo. Each has a read that lands on your practice specifically — and each comes with a reachable citation so you can verify it yourself before you use it with a client.
Under NRS 422.29302, the State files a claim in a probate proceeding only when there is no surviving spouse and no surviving child who is under 21, blind or disabled.
This is the structural fact a Nevada Medi plan is built around. A Deed Upon Death or funded trust that keeps the home out of probate is the recovery shield; the trap is letting the home fall into probate.
Nev. Rev. Stat. § 422.29302 · leg.state.nv.us
Nevada's Uniform Real Property Transfer on Death Act, NRS 111.655 to 111.699, lets an owner record a Deed Upon Death that passes the home outside probate.
Because recovery is probate-only, keeping the home out of probate via a recorded Deed Upon Death (or trust) is the recovery play — pair it with the homestead and watch the basis step-up under community property.
Nev. Rev. Stat. § 111.655 et seq. · leg.state.nv.us
Nevada expanded managed care to all 17 counties effective Jan 1, 2026, bringing rural members into MCOs for the first time (selection deadline late Dec 2025; 90-day grace period to Mar 31, 2026).
Plan delivery and prior-authorization pathways changed for rural LTC clients. Confirm a client's MCO assignment before assuming continuity of services.
DHCFP managed care expansion (Jan 1, 2026) · dhcfp.nv.gov
This week in Nevada for the T&E solo with Medicaid-planning clients: what the State Bar of Nevada, DHCFP, and CMS put in front of you.
The bar CLE calendar, the DHCFP bulletins, and the federal standards all publish on different schedules. This is that sift, already done, with the link on each item.
