July 2008
Arkansas House Bill 1069
On July 1, 2008, the Arkansas Department of Human Services launched its
Arkansas Long-Term Care (LTC) Partnership program. The joint program of
Arkansas Medicaid, the Arkansas Insurance Department, and private
insurance companies will protect the assets of individuals as they move
into long-term-care facilities. Home and community-based services will be
covered by the Arkansas LTC Partnership plans if a qualifying policy
provides coverage for such services. Insurance companies will be able to
market LTC Partnership policies. Arkansas will become the tenth state to
start a long term care insurance partnership program since Congress
authorized expansion of the program in the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005.
