"The Task Force is charged with developing policies at the federal level to complement reforms at the state level," explains Jesse Slome, director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance (AALTCI).

Topics discussed included the social need for long-term supports and services, the individual private LTCI market, employer, group, and worksite products, state regulation of LTCI, the federal government and LTCI, and federal-state partnerships and other financing approaches.
"The Task Force is seeking input on potential reforms to federal laws, regulations and policies," shares Slome. "We encourage those who have passion and opinions to submit their ideas." Comments can be sent via Email to LTCITaskForce@treasury.gov or in writing, in triplicate, to the Federal Interagency Task Force on Long-Term Care Insurance, Department of the Treasury, 1500 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Room 3454 MT, Washington, DC 20220.
