Act Preserving Special Needs Trusts for Disabled Seniors (SD1400/HD769) This bill would enable disabled seniors to continue to use special needs pooled trusts without penalty to pay for important services and care not covered by MassHealth.  On the death of the disabled beneficiary, trust assets are to reimburse the State for MassHealth benefits paid (with a small amount paid to the non-profit administering the pooled trust); more than $8 million dollars reimbursed last year.
