Last week, I attended my first ILTCI conference in Raliegh, NC.  I met a bunch of great people, and I learned so much valuable information that I will share with you here and over the next months. What are states doing to alleviate the Medicaid system?  How will state programs work alongside private LTC insurance?  What can we do to encourage solid legislation that works? How is our country going to be able to afford to care for an aging population?  How can we as consumers be prepared for tomorrow?
