摘要：

States are exploring the development of a state-based social insurance program for long-term services and supports (LTSS). Medicaid is the largest LTSS public payer, half of which is financed with state dollars. As pressure on the financing system mounts, states feel the pain. Also driving states are limited private market growth, federal policymaking gridlock, and a growing realization that strains on the budget and delivery systems will only increase. This article describes key design components states must consider, and outlines states' efforts.
