AnnotationThe present system of long-term care funding is unsatisfactory, and the Government is planning controversial changes. This book's contributors explore past and future policy, and reflect on the changing balance between the State's and the individual's responsibilities. Questions of equity, efficiency and affordability are considered in the light of the report from the Royal Commission on Long-Term Care. (RH).
