SUMMARY:Why the Affordable Care Act Matters to Diverse Older People
DESCRIPTION:Cosponsored by Grantmakers in Aging\, The California Wellness Foundation\, The Diverse Elders Coalition\, and The John A. Hartford Foundation \nWhen: \nWednesday\, November 6 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern/1:00 p.m. Central/Noon Mountain/ 11:00 a.m. Pacific \nWho: \n\nYanira Cruz\, President and CEO\, National Hispanic Council on Aging; and\nMichael Adams\, Executive Director\, Services and Advocacy for GLBT Elders (SAGE)\n\nWhat: \nThe health coverage expansions under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will affect you\, your loved ones and your communities. The Diverse Elders Coalition represents millions of diverse older people age 50+ who are among those affected by the these expansions. They include the Health Insurance Marketplace\, the Medicaid expansion\, new benefits for elders 65+ on Medicare\, and a range of protections that make health care more accessible for lesbian\, gay\, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) older people and older people of color. The number of uninsured older adults age 50-64 continues to rise—from 3.7 million in 2000 to 8.9 million in 2010. In addition\, people of color make up more than half of uninsured people in the U.S.— and research shows that people of color\, across the age span\, face significant disparities in physical and mental health. Additionally\, many people of color delay care because of potential medical costs and out of fear of discrimination or cultural incompetence from medical providers.These issues are especially true for LGBT people of color who face challenges on multiple aspects of their identities. The ACA has the ability to create a path to better health by offering more affordable health insurance options\, improving services and eliminating the usual obstacles. This webinar highlighted both national and state-specific examples on what is being done to ensure that older people know about the changes that are taking place under the ACA and how it affects them.

SUMMARY:2013 Fall Forum
DESCRIPTION:Washington\, DC \n \nThe Fall Forum is GIH’s annual gathering for funders interested in health policy. The 2013 agenda included Foundations and Health Reform\, the inaugural Lauren LeRoy Health Policy Lecture featuring Uwe E. Reinhardt\, and the strategy session Engaging the Public to Advance Policy Change. \nFOUNDATIONS AND HEALTH REFORM\nThursday\, October 24 \nEnrolling the uninsured in new coverage opportunities\, developing a health workforce that is prepared to meet the needs of millions of newly insured Americans\, and ensuring that an adequate safety net remains for those who are still uninsured are the latest challenges in health reform implementation and the focus of many health funders. At the fourth annual Foundations and Health Reform meeting\, grantmakers engaged in a dialogue with each other and with those on the front lines of implementation and policymaking. Attendees examined issues in small group discussions and shared insights about successful foundation-funded work; explored potential collaborations with government\, academia\, and the health sector; and networked with colleagues and experts in the field. [AGENDA] \nLAUREN LEROY HEALTH POLICY LECTURE\nThursday\, October 24 \nWhile president and CEO at GIH\, Lauren LeRoy was known for her strong commitment to increasing communication between the worlds of philanthropy and policy. On her retirement from the organization in 2012\, the GIH Board of Directors established the Lauren LeRoy Health Policy Lecture Series as a lasting tribute to this commitment. \nThe inaugural Lauren LeRoy Health Policy Lecture featured Uwe E. Reinhardt\, James Madison Professor of Political Economy and Professor of Economics and Public Affairs at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University. Regarded as one of the nation’s leading experts on health care economics\, Dr. Reinhardt informed\, challenged\, and inspired grantmakers to examine health and health care in the United States at a deeper level and from different perspectives. \n> Click here to watch the video recording \nENGAGING THE PUBLIC TO ADVANCE POLICY CHANGE\nFriday\, October 25 \nPolicy change often depends on the active\, engaged participation of community members. Foundation efforts to encourage and support public involvement in health policy decisionmaking can take a variety of forms\, including grassroots advocacy\, community organizing\, civic engagement\, voter registration\, outreach and enrollment\, public will building\, and public education. The nature and intent of these activities vary\, but all share common challenges related to effective communications\, relationship building\, and community empowerment. At this fully-booked and highly interactive strategy session health funders explored these challenges by boosting innovative investments related to information technology\, social media applications\, and nontraditional partnerships.

SUMMARY:Advanced Old Age in America: What Can We Count On?
DESCRIPTION:Grantmakers In Health(opens in new tab)\, Altarum Institute(opens in new tab)\, Grantmakers In Aging(opens in new tab)\, and National Coalition on Health Care(opens in new tab) cosponsored a roundtable discussion on health care reform and elderly Americans living with frailty in their last years. In particular\, the roundtable focused on the need to consider the distinct priorities and preferences of the old and frail\, as well as those of family members and caregivers\, as the nation considers a number of different strategies and policy changes to strengthen and streamline health care. \nThe roundtable addressed a number of questions\, including: \n\nHow serious are the shortcomings in services and the expected growth in costs as the population ages? How much time do we have to make arrangements for the coming increase in numbers?\nWhat should we promise to individuals living with frailty in old age and their families? How does this differ from the current trajectory?\nHalf of those who live past 85 years old will have cognitive failure. What health care\, social supports\, and financial arrangements would serve people touched by this challenging situation?\nWhich of the current reforms and trials offer prospects of moving us toward a workable set of solutions—that is\, more appropriate and desirable services\, at lower cost? Are there additional strategies that should be tested and developed?\nWhat role might local coalitions\, commissions\, and communities have?\n\nSpeakers at the Roundtable: \n\nJoseph Antos\, Wilson H. Taylor Scholar in Health Care and Retirement Policy\, American  Enterprise Institute\nShannon Brownlee\, Senior Vice President\, Lown Institute; Senior Fellow\, New America Foundation; Instructor\, The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice\nSuzanne Burke\, Chief Executive Officer\, Council on Aging of Southwestern Ohio\nSusan Dentzer\, Senior Health Policy Adviser\, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (Moderator)\nJohn Feather\, Chief Executive Officer\, Grantmakers In Aging\nJennie Chin Hansen\, Chief Executive Officer\, American Geriatrics Society\nSen.
