The Illinois Supreme Court has held that despite language in the federal Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act stating that no income of the spouse of an individual in a nursing home is to be "deemed available to the institutionalized spouse", the state is not prohibited from seeking a contribution for the institutionalized person's care from his or her spouse.
