A) Medicaid
B) One or more chronic illnesses
C) Certificate of need
D) Private insurance
C
Feedback:
Some states have formal statewide assisted-living facilities. These facilities require a certificate of need (CON). Medicaid is a federal program for assistance and having a chronic illness is not a requirement. Residents in facilities based on need would most likely not have private insurance.
