One survey shows 77% of adults over 50 would prefer to grow older where they already live instead of moving to a home or an assisted living facility–but there are obstacles in place for those who want to stay in their homes.
This week, we talk about the current challenges of aging in place with Dan Weinrieb, the Head of Strategic Partnerships at Jukebox Health, a company dedicated to making aging at home a common-sense and cost-effective option for older adults. Dan says the issues relating to aging in place are known, but taking action to fix the problems is where our system falls short. He breaks down what these barriers are, and what will need to change if we want people to actually be able to grow older where they choose.
Also, we talk about a decision from the Colorado Prescription Drug Affordability Board to not place a price cap on a best-selling cystic fibrosis medication.
