Info

Illinois must change from being an “institutionalized state” to one that provides a continuum of long-term care in each area of the state. Illinois spends 77% of its Medicaid funds on institutional care, compared to 35% in some other states. We must have supportive living and assisted-living-type of facilities. Don Chandro (Cooperative Healthcare Planning Services — health insurance): More people need long-term care insurance. A long-term care tax credit would help more people purchase services and lower the state’s expense. 95
