North Carolina offers an array of long term care (LTC) services for Medicaid beneficiaries. In 2004, House Bill 1414 directed the state’s Depart.ment of Health and Human Services to commission a study of whether an institutional bias exists in Medicaid-financed LTC services. In 2001, North Carolina’s Institute of Medicine presented a General Assembly-commissioned report  entitled “A Long Term Care Plan for North Carolina.”  The report outlined barriers in state LTC policy and practices and offered recommendations to the State on how to improve the LTC delivery system.  This study builds on those findings and recommendations and offers an updated look at North Carolina’s Medicaid LTC system
