The insurance company has to do an assessment which takes. During the process she cannot have a family member living with her. Which makes the situation more difficult as the family member living with her would have to move out while they do there assement. Does enyone have any experience or knowledge and or advice on this. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Her Doctor will provide the letter needed and she meets all the criteria needed to have this family member compensated as they are unable to work due to the extent of time involved in the care of our Mother and at this time we are not prepared to put her in assisted living as she is comfortable in her home environment.
Sorry to read about your sister passing on... was she a caregiver for your Mom? If yes, a word of warning, 1 out of every 3 caregiver dies leaving behind their love one.

I think you misunderstood what the person from the insurance company told you.
You cannot be present during the in-home assessment. The in-home assessment takes about 45 minutes.
The insurance company is NOT requiring you to move out of the house. That would be cause for a lawsuit. You can stay in the home and continue to care for your mother. You just can't be present for the 45-minute in-home assessment.
I hope this helps.
