The Oklahoma Legislature finds that access to information regarding all components of a long-term care support system is necessary to empower the elderly and persons with disabilities in planning, evaluating, and making decisions to meet their individual long-term care support needs appropriately. This access to information shall be provided through the Options Counseling for Long-term Care Program provided by the Aging and Disability Resource Consortium and its partner community organizations. The Options Counseling for Long-term Care Program shall be designed to allow for an integrated system that facilitates navigation of the variety of private and public resources available; minimizes service fragmentation; reduces duplication of administrative paperwork procedures; enhances individual choice; supports informed decision making; and increases the cost-effectiveness of long-term care services and support systems.
