Will getting the house in our names prevent us from losing it?

I'm unclear. Did the Medicaid Estate Recovery Program send the notice regarding the parent's estate or your brother's estate? You should speak with the lawyer who probated the will. The Medicaid Estate Recovery Program is a creditor, and you would use the debt classification system of the Estates Code. I just can't tell from the email which estate MERP is going after.

Under the law, once a will has gone through probate and executor is appointed, should this be sufficient to access bank accounts?

Give the Bank what they want. It is not worth fighting with them. Just calling your attorney has cost you more than the cost of the death certificate. Many institutions will require the death certificate.
