Aging populations can often feel lonely, need to make nutritional sacrifices, or find themselves unable to pay essential bills. Many also have difficulty navigating the health care system and government and community resources, all of which pose substantial challenges.
This collection of STAT journalism tackles these and other critical issues facing an aging population. STAT reporters spotlight gaps in care, including the absence of tailored food delivery services for Medicare recipients and the hurdles faced in accessing insurance coverage due to AI-based denials.
Recognizing these challenges is just the beginning. We must do better as a society for older adults, and the health care industry plays an important role in the challenges and possible solutions. Explore all of this and more through STAT’s award-winning journalism.
