The Alliance for Health Policy held a webinar on June 25 as part of its Signature Series, "Top 5 Things to Know About Aging in America: Insights for the Health Policy Community."
With so many resources and programs influencing the lives of older adults, this webinar highlighted four foundational policies that have the greatest impact on aging populations—Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and the Older Americans Act.
Experts shared trusted resources to better understand these systems, tracked evolving policy changes, and explored innovations and emerging models shaping the future of aging. An interactive Q&A offered practical insights on navigating care options and addressing common misconceptions about how coverage and services work.
