Zhang Xifan, head of the Department of Benefits Guarantee of the National Healthcare Security Administration, stated that the long-term care insurance fund is mainly used to pay for the costs of basic long-term care services that meet the regulations, and in principle, it does not directly provide cash to disabled individuals. Providing services and reimbursing expenses is to ensure that the fund is used for the care of disabled individuals, so that they can truly benefit.
