11:45am – 1:15pm
Washington State Convention Center – 2A
The experiences of aging and living with disability can be influenced by a number of factors. In this session, presenters share how enhancing one’s individual capacity, improving the home environment, participating in a supplemental nutrition assistance program, and attending to the needs of both older adults and their caregivers can improve outcomes, as measured by reduced disability, lower utilization, and reductions in short-term mortality. In addition, presenters discuss the influence of individual’s health on their socioeconomic status, and how varying measures of socioeconomic status and eligibility criteria for Medicaid LTSS could influence receipt of supportive services and Medicaid spending.
