Legislation

The Federal Long Term Care Insurance Program was established by Public Law 106-265, The Long-Term Care Security Act. It is codified in Title 5, Part III, Subpart G, Chapter 90, of the U.S. Code. Chapter 90 has subsequently been amended by several additional laws, mostly pertaining to the groups eligible to apply for insurance under the program.
