In 2006, the public Long-term Care Insurance (LTCI) system underwent a major reform that, among other things, set a new goal of “establishing care that supports the dignity of elders.” Based on case studies of two innovative service providers pursuing this new goal, we examine the role of LTC services in supporting the continuity of normal daily life, and consider the quality of care that will be demanded from the LTCI system in the future.
