Kaiser Health News: The Late Life and Geriatric Care Reporting Project
Grant Summary
This three-year partnership with Kaiser Health News (KHN), the nation’s leading health policy news service, will establish a top-tier reporting desk that will build awareness and understanding of geriatric care issues among the public, policymakers, and the health care sector. KHN will focus on both problems and solutions in how health care systems work, the policies that drive their behavior and the care experiences of older people and their families. Over 120 articles, 2 large-scale investigative projects, and 2 events will be produced each year, in addition to consumer-oriented informational pieces and resources. KHN has distribution partnerships with The Washington Post, NPR, and other media outlets that reach tens of millions of people. The project will benefit from the overall reporting resources of KHN and the polling and research capacities of its parent organization, the Kaiser Family Foundation.
