Seminar Instructor
Steve Moses - Founder, President & CEO of the Center for Long-Term Care Financing and LTC Graduate Seminar instructor - is widely recognized as an expert and an innovator in the field of long-term care. McKnight's Long-Term Care News named him "one of the 100 most influential people in long-term care." Nursing Homes magazine reported "there is probably no more articulate spokesperson for privately financed long-term care than Stephen Moses." His articles appear often in distinguished publications like The Gerontologist, The Journal of Accountancy, Contemporary Long-Term Care, Best's Review, and National Underwriter. He has testified before half of America's state legislatures. He frequently addresses professional conferences in the fields of law, aging and insurance. Steve Moses' recommendations are quoted regularly in the national media including the "CBS Evening News," PBS's "Frontline" and "The Financial Advisors," CNN, National Public Radio, The New York Times, Newsweek, USA Today, Forbes, The New Republic, Smart Money, National Journal, and Jane Bryant Quinn's syndicated column.
