Age-Friendly Health Systems
Grant Summary
The John A. Hartford Foundation has partnered with the Institute for Healthcare Improvement and the American Hospital Association to develop and test a health systems-wide prototype of care for older adults, measuring the impact on health systems as compared with those lacking such an approach. Working with four major health systems in this phase, the goal is to spread the evidence-based Age-Friendly Health System prototype to 20 percent of hospitals and health systems in the U.S. by 2020.
