States should fund the services needed to meet individuals’ LTSS needs and allow them to remain in the community.
States should coordinate LTSS programs, policies, and budgets. This can be done in one state agency or across multiple agencies.
Medicaid is the single largest public funding source for long-term services and supports (LTSS). It is a combined federal-state program. Some Medicaid services are federally mandated.
All federal and state agencies with a key role in financing or delivering LTSS should coordinate their efforts.
