Objective:To establish index weight system of the disability rating scale for the long-term care in-surance.

Re-sults:The weights of the 4 first-class indicators in the long-term care insurance disability rating scale were as follows:sensory perception was 0.2408,basic activities of daily living was 0.5899,cognitive ability was 0.1204, emotional& behavior was 0.0489;and the weights of 22 second-class indicators were calculated simultaneously.
