Many more U.S. long-term care insurance (LTCI) policyholders are using their benefits to pay for home care, rather than care in a nursing home or other facility.
The American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance (AALTCI) has presented that finding in a new analysis of 2014 and 2019 LTCI issuer survey data.
