In July of 2019, Representative Jennifer Schulz (DFL, District: 07A; Chair: Long-Term Care Division) requested that the Robert L. Kane Endowed Chair in Long-Term Care and Aging convene a meeting of experts on long-term care (LTC) financing to provide policy ideas and solutions to “fund the LTC needs of the people of Minnesota.” To meet this request, the Robert L. Kane Endowed Chair in Long-Term Care and Aging assembled a group of faculty and external experts to identify long-term care refinancing policy options for the state of Minnesota. These efforts culminated in the January 2020 Forum on Long-Term Care Financing at the University of Minnesota, co-sponsored by the Robert L. Kane Endowed Chair in Long-Term Care and Aging and the State of Minnesota Departments of Health, Human Services and Revenue, and the Minnesota Board on Aging.
