Abstract
Increasing emphasis on self reliance as an objective of social policy calls for a re‐assessment of how long‐term care for dependent elderly people will be funded. A variety of options are available for sharing the costs between the state and users. Private long‐term care insurance has the potential to play a part in the future, but constraints from both the supply and demand sides must be taken into account, as must the wider social implications of policy choices.
