| Annotation | In the US, state loan agencies provide valuable capital funds for new and existing long-term care facilities and programmes. This study presents findings from a telephone survey of such agencies about the size and scope of loan programmes for long-term care. Thirty-two state financing agencies located in 31 states provided US$1.4 billion in funds for long-term care facilities in 1997, primarily through bonds. Of the 101 entities that received financing in 1997, the majority was for residential care and/or assisted living facilities or multi-level facilities. Despite variations in financing across states, the state programmes are important sources of long-term care financing. (KJ/RH). |
