A State Scorecard on Long-Term Services and Supports for Older Adults, People with Physical Disabilities, and Family Caregivers was sponsored by AARP, the Commonwealth Fund, and the Scan Foundation. This State Long-Term Services and Supports Scorecard is the first of its kind: a multidimensional approach to measure state-level performance of long-term services and supports systems that provide assistance to older people and adults with disabilities. This report will be a helpful tool for family caregivers who need to understand how the healthcare industry is fairing in our society. Some good, some okay, and some bad. Please read the summary report.
