12:15-12:30 PM Adjourn*
The purpose of this meeting is to conduct the governmental business outlined in the above agenda. The Wisconsin Long Term Care Advisory Council was first created through the 1999 Wisconsin Act 9 with the responsibility to report annually to the legislature and to the Governor on the status of Family Care and assist in developing broad policy issues related to long-term care services. Wisconsin Act 9 sunset the Council as a legislative council as of July 21, 2001, but the council was reappointed a few months later as an advisory group to the Department on emerging issues in long-term care. The Council has continued to provide guidance to the secretary and make recommendations regarding long-term care policies, programs, and services. More information about the council is available at wcltc.wisconsin.gov.
