| Annotation | This article looks at some of the key trends that are emerging in long-term care in the United States (US) related to financing, new models of service delivery, and shifts in consumer expectations and preferences. Taken together, changes occurring in these areas point to a rapidly transforming long-term care landscape. Financing responsibility is shifting away from the federal government to states, individuals, and their families; providers are integrating and managing acute and long-term care services and adding new services to the continuum of care; and consumers are thinking more seriously about how to pay for their future needs, as well as how to independently navigate the long-term care system. |
