Did you know?

The long-term care insurance system was put in place to provide care and support to dependent persons who live at home or in a long-term care facility. It caters to their needs by:

  • providing benefits in kind;
  • covering the cost of assistive technology and home adaptations.

In the case of dependent persons who live at home, the benefits in kind may be replaced by cash benefits, subject to certain conditions.
