Across the States 2018: Profiles of Long-Term Services and Supports is the 10^th edition of the AARP Public Policy Institute’s state long-term services and supports (LTSS) reference report.

Published for the past 24 years, Across the States presents comparable state-level and national data from a large number of studies and data sources—including some original analysis not found elsewhere—into a single volume.

The purpose of this flagship publication is to help policy makers, administrators, and stakeholders make informed decisions about LTSS public policies and programs. Topics include: age demographics and projections; living arrangements, income, and poverty; disability rates; costs of care; private long-term care insurance; Medicaid long-term services and supports (LTSS); family caregivers; home- and community-based services (HCBS); and nursing facilities.
