Compact for Long Term Care 

The New York State Bar Association Elder Law Section's Long Term Care Reform Committee proposed an alternative method of financing Long Term Care in a way that seeks to help New York State residents access the Long Term Care they need while at the same time curbing the burgeoning costs of the Medicaid Program. This proposal, entitled The Compact, brings a new approach to determining an applicant's eligibility for government-subsidized Long Term Care services. The Compact Working Group, a subcommittee of the Long Term Care Reform Committee, has devised a novel plan that is both realistic and pragmatic. Read more about this innovative approach to Long Term Care financing in an article by Vincent J. Russo, Esq. and Howard S. Krooks, Esq. (Compact Article PDF).
