The objective of this summary report is
to highlight the main lessons learned from Organization for
Economic Development and Co-operation (OECD) countries with
advanced Long Term Care (LTC) policies and the implications
for LTC policymaking in new European Union (EU) member
states and Croatia. The first section examines the main
findings from the framework report on the financing,
provision and regulation of LTC services. The next section
presents comparative findings from the four case study
countries, including the demographic context for LTC
services, the main features of the financing, provision and
regulation of LTC services and the strengths and weaknesses
of current LTC systems there. The last section identifies
policy directions for the four case study countries. In
terms of LTC benefits, none of the case study countries have
a universal entitlement system combining home, community and
institutional care. Rather, LTC benefits, both cash and
in-kind, are limited and largely associated with the social
assistance system. The lack of data on LTC expenditures
mainly stems from the undefined position of LTC between the
health and social sectors, which makes it difficult to
accurately collect data. |
