Abstract:
In this article, we present population estimates of individuals with disabilities and discuss the manner in which the composition of this population is changing. We then highlight aspects of service delivery systems that are evolving in response to the changing long-term care (LTC) population.

Current and future Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) research and demonstrations emerging from these issues are then described.
