Three long-term care advocacy organizations--the American Health Care Association (AHCA), the Alliance for Quality Nursing Home Care (AQNHC) and the National Center for Assisted Living (NCAL)--last week unveiled a comprehensive plan designed to create a consumer-oriented system bringing greater private resources into the long-term and post-acute care delivery system.
The proposal emphasizes better coordination of both care and financing, greater private sector involvement, and appropriate personal responsibility. The plan would reorganize the Medicaid long-term care and Medicare post-acute care systems by centralizing and streamlining government services and making more private resources available to pay for care.
