The fourth annual Long-Term Care Colloquium, sponsored by The Commonwealth Fund and conducted by AcademyHealth, will provide an opportunity for long-term care (LTC) stakeholders to forge an agenda and bring information to bear on a set of problems faced by LTC policymakers and practitioners. This meeting will highlight two new long-term care issues: Medicare and Medicaid: Conflicting Incentives for Long-Term Care; and Consumer Preparedness for Long-Term Care.
