Long-Term Care 3.0 to Cover Younger Patients
Posted on 2025-04-11 16:08:13
Taiwan will expand its Long-Term Care 3.0 program next year to include more
people under 65.

The new plan will cover those under 50 with early-onset dementia and younger
stroke patients who are disabled.

Health officials say the change aims to help working-age people return to
their jobs with better support.

Eligibility will no longer depend only on age but also on medical need,
especially for those in post-acute care.

The program will also focus on palliative care, rehab, smart care, and
assistive device support.

Officials estimate over 5-thousand new patients under 65 may join by 2026.

The Health Ministry is also reviewing rules to ease the burden on staff,
after reports that patients were upset when yearly reviews reduced their care
hours.
