The Austrian InCARE Policy Roadmap presents recommendations for the further development of long-term care in the country. The recommendations focus on three different areas: developing the public debate on long-term care further, developing and expanding of services and addressing future needs in terms of financing long-term care.

These recommendations build on the different InCARE activities. The recommendations relating to financing long-term care were developed based on a cell-based model to calculate the projected costs of long-term care in Austria in 2035. It includes five different scenarios addressing care needs, availability of informal care, availability of residential care spots, availability of live-in care and wage costs. The calculation is also described in detail in the technical annex of the policy roadmap.
