Prepare a 3page, double-spaced paper (not including title page and references section) that addresses the following scenario.

Scenario: Your state is attempting to integrate services for people needing long-term care. Using an organization chart or list, research your state's Department of Health & Human Services and Department of Aging (exact department names may vary from state to state):

• Identify and decribe all the programs run by these two departments that potentially are related to long-term care and thus should be involved in the integration effort.
• Describe how the services of these departments are currently integrated with each other and with any other related state departments.
• Choose one program offered by one of the departments and explain how it could be improved to better meet the needs of the continuum (for example: choose Medicare Home Health Care and describe how adding payment for custodial long-term care in the home might benefit clients, providers, etc.).
