Long-Term Care: Where Are We and What's Next?

Millions of Americans of all ages need long-term care, but they face a looming question: how will they pay for these services? Coverage under Medicare and Medicaid is not comprehensive, and many people rely on their families and friends to shoulder some of the burden.

Part of the Beyond the Beltway: Health Policy Webinars for Journalists series, this webinar explored:

• The current landscape of the long-term care delivery system
• Funding mechanisms and state and federal legislation regarding long-term care
• Potential solutions to create a more accessible and financially sustainable system

This webinar is a project of the Alliance for Health Policy and NIHCM Foundation, in collaboration with the Association of Health Care Journalists.
