Arizona Long Term Care System (ALTCS)
Administered by the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS), through contracted managed care program contractors.
Dementia-specific eligibility
ALTCS requires a medical and functional assessment establishing a need for nursing-facility level of care, alongside Medicaid financial eligibility. The cited page does not describe any dementia-specific eligibility route, so ask the office that administers the programme how a dementia diagnosis is weighed in that assessment.
Asset limits: This state does not publish asset limits on its own program page. Confirm the current figures with the office that administers the program.
What makes AZ different: ALTCS is a single statewide long-term care programme delivered through contracted managed care organisations rather than a standalone waiver a family enrols in separately.
How to apply: Apply through AHCCCS for an ALTCS determination, which includes a medical and functional assessment as well as the financial review. Confirm current figures and criteria with AHCCCS directly, as the programme's dollar thresholds change each year.
