National Clearinghouse for Long-Term Care Information

The National Clearinghouse for Long-Term Care Information web site features a number of resources to help individuals start the planning process, including interactive tools such as a savings calculator, contact information for a range of programs and services, and real-life examples of how individuals have planned successfully.

The Clearinghouse was authorized by the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, which mandates that the clearinghouse provide the following: objective information to help consumers decide whether to purchase long-term care insurance or to pursue other private market alternatives that pay for long-term care; information about states with long-term care insurance partnerships under the Medicaid program; and information about the availability and limitations of coverage for long-term care under the Medicaid program.
