Elder Law: Kin may be held liable for care - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: In July 2005, the Pennsylvania General Assembly passed the "Filial Support Law," commonly known as Act 43. As we approach the seven-year anniversary of the re-codification of this law (it previously existed in the Welfare Code from the 1930s and was re-codified in the Domestic Relations Code for modern usage), there have been increasing instances of facilities pursuing family members to pay for care, usually for parents' care in a long-term care facility.
