Financing Long-Term Services and Supports

Event Description: 
The SCAN Foundation is hosting a Health Affairs Briefing on financing long-term services and supports. AARP, the SCAN Foundation, and LeadingAge funded "Financing Long-Term Services and Supports: Options Reflect Trade-Offs for Older Americans and Federal Spending," a study that examines the impact policy changes could have on increasing insurance's role in financing LTSS. This study was authored by Melissa M. Favreault and the Urban Institute's Howard Gleckman and Richard W. Johnson. The briefing will mainly be a discussion of the study and what policy changes can be made to improve the current issues with financing LTSS. A panel of ten distinguished experts will present at the briefing.
