Chapter 1 in The Economics of Long-term Care, 2026, pp 1-3 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract As demand for old-age long-term care (LTC) continues to grow, evaluating the roles of its three traditional providers—the state, the market, and the family—becomes increasingly important. This is especially true given the declining involvement of families and the limited capacity of market-based solutions to adequately address LTC needs.
