Health/LTSS: Medicare for All Plan With LTSS Coverage Introduced in the Senate

On April 10, Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and 14 other Senators introduced the Medicare for All Act of 2019 (S.1129) which expands Medicare to cover all residents. It also eliminates all out-of-pocket costs for all benefits except prescription drugs and expands benefits to include home and community-based long term services and supports (LTSS), among other things. The Arc supports including provisions to address the need for LTSS in any comprehensive health reform proposal.

Correction: The original title of this article inaccurately stated that this bill was introduced in the House. The Arc regrets this error.
