Managed Long-Term Services and Supports (MLTSS)

Managed Long-Term Services and Supports (MLTSS) is a healthcare program that arranges and oversees long-term care for individuals who need assistance with daily activities due to disabilities, chronic conditions, or aging. Instead of paying for services separately, participants receive coordinated care through a single managed system, often including personal care, home health, or community-based services. This approach aims to improve quality, ensure consistent support, and control costs by integrating medical and support services under managed care organizations. MLTSS helps individuals live more independently while receiving the necessary assistance tailored to their needs.
