What Is ALTCS?

The Arizona Longer Term Care System (ALTCS) program is the state of Arizona's medicaid system for aged (65 and over), blind, or disabled individuals who need ongoing services at a nursing facility level of care.

This doesn't mean you have to be living in a nursing home. Many people on ALTCS live in their own homes or at an assisted living facility and receive needed in-home services. ALTCS participants are also covered for medical care, including doctor's office visits, hospitalization, prescriptions, lab work and behavioral health services.
