CA AB911

Requires the California Department of Aging to establish a Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) Benefit Task Force to focus on LTSS benefit needs in California, or utilize an existing board, commission, committee, or task force for this purpose.

Mandates the department report to the Legislature by July 1, 2023, with findings and recommendations from the LTSS Benefit Task Force on services and supports needed for older adults and people with disabilities.

Report must include projections for aging populations, identify unmet needs for aging and disabled populations, and identify current programs utilized by these groups for services and supports.

Addresses findings that nearly 8 million Californians are older adults or individuals with disabilities, with over 1 million projected to need long-term services and supports by 2030.

Notes that private long-term care insurance coverage is extremely low (4.2% of Californians over 40) and costs are burdensome, with families relying heavily on unpaid family caregivers who suffer economic and health consequences.
