The National Advisory Board (NAB) on Improving Health Care Services for Older Adults and People with Disabilities has submitted responses (pdf) to several questions posed by the 2015 White House Conference on Aging (WHCOA) about long-term services and supports (LTSS), as well as the critical role of informal and formal caregiving, to support older Americans to remain independent in their homes and communities. LTSS is one of four issues the WHCOA has identified in a series of Policy Briefs leading up to its July 13 meeting. The others include: healthy aging, elder justice and retirement security.
