(AP Photo/Charles Krupa)WASHINGTON – With the memory of the pandemic's toll in nursing homes still raw, the COVID-19 relief law is offering states a generous funding boost for home- and community-based care as an alternative to institutionalizing disabled people.

While the federal government requires state Medicaid programs to cover nursing home care for low-income people, that's not the case for home- and community-based support services.
