| Annotation | There is a strong national and international movement to enhance the role of consumer choice, control and direction in important aspects of publicly financed home- and community-based long-term care. This article sets out to examine policy-relevant issues pertaining to how choices about publicly financed home- and community-based long-term care are actually made, implemented and monitored under a consumer direction model, with particular reference to Ohio. Specifically, the research considers those instances where a care recipient is unable to act as an autonomous, independent consumer selecting rationally between various options competing for the consumer's business in the market place.
