These numbers provided and calculations are based on the annual survey results for Cost of Long Term Care Services in the United States published by the Genworth insurance company. This is a nationally recognized survey and is also used as the basis justification for some of the calculations found in the Maryland COMAR supplemental guidelines for Medicaid services.
