The South Dakota state Senate has tabled a bill that calls for the legislature to look into the idea of making big changes in the state’s long-term care (LTC) system.
Members of the Senate have voted 30-3 to set state Senate Bill 135 aside.
The bill would have set up a summer study committee that would have evaluated the possibility of implementing LTC system recommendations from the 2007 Evaluation of Long-Term Care Options for South Dakota.
The state Department of Social Services commissioned Abt Associates to create the report.
