SUMMARY:Poll Briefing: How Does It Feel? The Older Adult Health Care Experience
DESCRIPTION:The John A. Hartford Foundation will hold a poll briefing about its first national survey\, “How Does It Feel? The Older Adult Health Care Experience.” \nSpeakers: \n\nChris Langston\, Ph.D.\, program director at the John A. Hartford Foundation\nTresa Undem\, vice president at Lake Research Partners\nRoseanne Leipzig\, M.D.\, Ph.D.\, a geriatrician at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine\n\nMonday\, April 23\, Noon EDT. \nRegister for Webinar. \nThe Hartford survey focused on people age 65 and exposes large and troubling gaps in the primary care that many older adults receive. These gaps include failure to perform specific\, recommended\, low-tech interventions such as an annual medication review\, a falls risk assessment and history\, depression screening\, referral to non-medical health support services\, and reviewing patients’ capacity to perform daily tasks and activities without help. These gaps in recommended geriatric care increase patients’ risk of a range of preventable health problems and can increase health care costs\, erode quality of life\, cause disability\, and even kill. \nThe poll also explored older adults’ satisfaction with their care\, their awareness of available health benefits\, and their views on whether more geriatrics education is important and would improve health care. \nThis national survey of 1\,028 adults 65 and older was conducted with Lake Research Partners and has a margin of error is 3.1 percentage points. Results are embargoed until April 24\, 2012. For more information\, please visit www.jhartfound.org. \n
