OK, depends on the larger context that is missing here.

Maybe "other benefits that can be redirected" or
"other benefits that can be seized"

I am guessing here, but I think the deal is somebody is put in some
kind of long term government care facility, and in this case the
government (or the care facility, which is probably the same thing)
will withhold some pension or similar, or, again, give it to the care
facility.
