The Democratic presidential nominee, Vice-President Kamala Harris, announced a plan to provide long-term, at-home care services through Medicare, the public health insurance program for Americans older than 65.

Medicare completed its first negotiations with drug makers this year. The CBO estimates prescription drug negotiations will save the government $98.5bn over a decade. Harris did not outline the cost of an at-home care support program in her appearance. Her campaign said at-home care costs roughly $3,000 less per month than nursing home care.
