“New BPC Report Suggests Fixes to LTC Financing Challenge,” by Melanie Waddell, ThinkAdvisor

“Financing of long-term care continues to plague lawmakers in Washington as people live longer and the rate of dementia and Alzheimer’s cases continues to skyrocket, driving the increased need for long-term care coverage. Just-released research by the Bipartisan Policy Center sets out recommendations for improving the financing and delivery of long-term care.”

LTC Comment (from Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform):
I watched the presentation of this “new research” today. I’m sorry to say: “Don’t bother.” Old ideas sprinkled with a few new recommendations that will go nowhere. As long as these experts remain in denial about Medicaid’s role in LTC, they’ll keep getting the same results.
