Medicaid is the primary payer for long-term care services. CMS and states support service delivery through a range of settings—from institutional care to community-based long-term services and supports. These services can provide beneficiaries with disabilities and chronic conditions:
- Independence
- Improved health
- Improved quality of life
In the future, the Scorecard will include measures that describe the delivery and outcomes of long-term care services for Medicaid beneficiaries as measures and data become available.
