What is Long-Term Care (LTC) and Who Needs it?

Long-term care (LTC) is a range of services and supports you may need to meet your personal care needs. At some point in our lives, about 60 percent of us will need assistance with things like getting dressed, driving to appointments, or making meals. Planning is critical, but many people are not sure what is covered by insurance, and people are often misinformed about what is covered by Medicare.
