We've talked a lot about comprehensive dementia care on the GeriPal podcast but while the evidence is clear that these programs work, the uptake has been limited largely because there hasn't been a strong financial case for it. Don't get me wrong, the evidence points to cost savings, but as Chris Callahan and Kathleen Unroe pointed out in a JAGS editorial in 2020 “in comprehensive dementia care models, savings may accrue to Medicare, but the expenses accrue to a fluid and unstable network of local service providers, patients, and their families.” The good news is that the financial case for comprehensive dementia care is changing thanks to a new Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) alternative payment model (APM) called Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience (GUIDE) Model.  This model will give participating programs a per-member-per-month payment to offer care management, care coordination, and other services such as caregiver training, disease education, and respite. On today's podcast we talk with Malaz Boustani of Indiana University, as well as Diane Ty, the senior director of the Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging, about the GUIDE model.  We'll cover why the GUIDE model is important (hint - it all comes down to funding), how it was developed, what components will it include, and how it will be evaluated. To read more about the GUIDE model, check out the following links: Diane's article in Health Affairs titled “A Promising Turning Point For Dementia Care: The GUIDE Model” Another Health Affairs article titled “Applying An Evidence-Based Approach To Comprehensive Dementia Care Under The New GUIDE Model” The CMS site if you are interested in learning more or applying to be a site (the application period will close on January 30, 2024)

As the cryptocurrency industry grows, state and federal governments are considering how that industry should be regulated. The President has directed the Secretary of the Treasury to report soon on the issues involved. A draft bill that would regulate stablecoins has been released in the U.S. Senate. Meanwhile, states are competing with one another to adopt regulatory laws that may attract cryptocurrency firms to their welcoming, but taxing, arms striving for economic growth.Will regulation be designed to avoid discouraging innovation in a highly creative environment? Fears have been expressed that unregulated cryptocurrency could theoretically present systemic risk, and consumers may need to be protected–particularly in light of the recent collapse of the Luna cryptocurrency and its related Terra stablecoin. Some believe that regulation may be an opportunity to include those presently unserved by the banking system. Complicating this already complicated picture may be rivalry among multiple federal agencies, including the banking regulators, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Commodities Futures Trading Commission, and the Federal Trade Commission, each of which may make a case for potential authority over aspects of the cryptocurrency industry. Our panel of experts addressed these timely and controversial questions.Featuring:- Douglas Elliott, Partner, Oliver Wyaman- Michael Piwowar, Executive Director, Milken Institute Center for Financial Markets- Dawn Stump, Former Commissioner, U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission- Thomas Vartanian, Executive Director, Financial Technology & Cybersecurity Center- [Moderator] Paul N.

In Episode 88 of the Charity Charge Show, Stephen talks to Nora Super, Executive Director of the Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging, whose mission is to help people build meaningful lives, in which they can experience health and well-being, pursue effective education and gainful employment, and access the resources required to create ever-expanding opportunities for themselves and their broader communities. Stephen and Nora Super talk about the importance of support for our aging population, being an effective leader through vulnerability, and creating policies aligned with the needs of those with lived experiences. Nora Super is the executive director of the Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging. In this role, Super provides strategic direction for two primary focus areas: Healthy Longevity and Financial Wellness. In 2020, Super launched the Milken Institute Alliance to Improve Dementia Care, which seeks to transform and improve the complex health and long-term care systems that people at risk for and living with dementia must navigate. Super is a respected thought leader, frequent speaker, and prolific writer on healthy longevity and the economic and social impact of global population aging. From 2014 to 2016, Super served as the executive director of the White House Conference on Aging, where she received wide recognition for her nationwide efforts to improve the lives of older Americans. She has also held leadership roles at the US Department of Health and Human Services, AARP, Kaiser Permanente, and USAging. Nora Super on the importance of involving those with lived experiences in policy creation: It's important to us to always make sure that we have people with lived experience as part of all the policy decisions we have. We make many policy recommendations and we want to make sure in all those conversations that we have someone who's living with dementia themselves or a caregiver of someone who's living with dementia to give us their real experience and feedback. This input stress tests the policies because sometimes people in government or research institutions think a policy will work on the ground but the people who are living with this may see issues we didn't so they will tell us, this makes a difference to them, or no. We get a lot of good feedback about what's too complicated, what's helpful, what they wish they had known earlier and those comments help drive our work.

Nora Super brings her expertise in aging research to the conversation with Soledad and Jean as they explore the importance of financial wellness when it comes to health and aging. Topics include early signs of cognitive decline, caring for someone with dementia, and planning for your future health care financially.

Rethinking Nursing Homes and Care of Older Adults "Communities should create solutions that aren't just involving geriatricians of the world or the geriatric nurses and social workers. It's going to take everybody pulling together."  -Melissa Batchelor, PhD, RN, FNP-BC, FGSA, FAAN ____________________________________________________________________ "Grow old along with me. The best is yet to be. The last of life for which the first was made." In 1864, as Robert Browning wrote those words, growing old was not regarded the same as it is today. Before nursing homes and assisted living facilities, older adults aged at home alongside their families. Today, most people still age in their communities; but for the aging population that becomes frail, they may need the support from these long-term care institutions. However, the current nursing homes and care parameters for older adults often stigmatize aging and overlooked what people want when they get older. To counter this, we need a shift in mindset, one that sees older adults as persons with diverse needs, dreams, and aspirations about their future rather than just patients in need of care. In this episode of This Is Getting Old, join Dr. Stuart Butler and me in rethinking nursing homes and care for older adults. Part One of 'Rethinking Nursing Homes and Care of Older Adults'. The Convergence Report on Rethinking Care for Older Adults    History and Background   The Convergence Report on Rethinking Care for Older Adults is released at the end of November 2020. It was supported by the John A. Hartford Foundation, which funds a lot of work in the long-term care area on aging.  The convergence conversation aimed to bring together about 50 people from very different backgrounds and different points of view to see if there are common ground areas. They were asked to brainstorm about the issues impacting today’s nursing homes, what's going on there, and what could be done differently. They were also asked to explore other ways that people can age outside of nursing homes.  A crucial part of the conversation revolved around the workforce and the caregiving field, the workforce's nature and how to think about it differently in the future, and the financing of aging in American care and nursing homes.   The Findings Of The Convergence Report On Rethinking Care For Older Adults   The resulting main areas revolved around living outside nursing homes, the payment system, and the caregiving workforce.  Today's nursing home system is increasingly out of date and the product of the payment system. The majority  of older adults need not stay in nursing homes. There are ways of enabling them to live more successfully in their own homes and their communities. People and institutions can help older adults stay in their own homes, avoid isolation, and be safer. Today, the caregiving workforce is predominantly low-paid, very heavily immigrant—It's a low-skilled, low-paid workforce.  "Only 5% of people over 65 ever end up in a nursing home, but they account for 50% of the state's budget." -Melissa Batchelor, PhD, RN, FNP-BC, FGSA, FAAN  Reimaging Nursing Homes and Other Care Institutions Alternative Business Models & Payment Systems The current payment system for long-term care forces many older adults to go into a care setting, which may not be the right one for them. It may not be ideal and indeed may not make them happy and may cut them off from their family.  If a family  asks, 'What's the next best thing for mom?' The first response right now will be, 'We need to talk about your finances to figure that answer out.'  Exploring The Financing And Workforce Elements   Medicare + Medicare   There's a lot of interest in revamping the rules and the regulations associated with, particularly Medicare and Medicaid, as to what they would cover. Medicare and Medicaid alternative services should be more open to covering home- and community-based services. However, exploring these options has the potential to  save government spending on Medicaid and Medicare in the long term.    Role Of Private Health Insurance   One possible solution for people who do have some savings but are afraid of them being exhausted and then ending up on Medicaid, is providing a so-called “catastrophic backup” to long-term care insurance. The idea is to have legislation that would set this up to stabilize the long-term care insurance industry to make it more viable in the future. When this happens, then far fewer people would fall into this trap of being unable to pay.    Role Of Long-term Care Insurance   The long-term care insurance industry has declined very sharply in the last several years, in part because younger people don't think of having long-term care insurance. The other thing is people are living longer, and they live longer with sometimes costly illnesses that impact their ability to be independent. So long-term care insurers face these enormous potential costs; so this approach is not working. Part Two of 'Rethinking Nursing Homes and Care of Older Adults'. Expanding the range of older adult-friendly housing and communities 95% of older adults do stay and age in their own homes. Below are some ideas to help people age at home.   Design and Collaboration   Architects involved in the convergence conversation think about how to design housing that is safer and more open. These perspectives include looking at group housing, in various forms, and thinking about how multifamily units can be designed so that an older person can have that privacy, and so on.  But more than these essential design features, we also look at how to build social capital  that helps an older adult live in their own home and community, but not be isolated and cut-off from the rest of society.   Role of Technology   There are also a lot of improvements in technology. For instance, monitoring older adults, a doctor, or a nurse in the area can know if that person is getting unsafe in some way like a potential fall, etc. Technology connects health care providers and older adults so that their needs can be addressed.  “We’re on the cusp of thinking differently about nursing homes in the future.” -Stuart M. Butler, Senior Fellow, Economics Studies Thinking About The Caregiving Workforce Differently Workforce Issues: Other Resources to Learn More   LeadingAge Report: Making Care Work Pay   LeadingAge released a new report, Making Care Work Pay. The report highlights health care professionals as an essential part of the United States' healthcare infrastructure and accounts for a significant portion of its workforce. Every day, nearly 3.5 million direct care staff operate in residential care centers and private homes to offer care for some of society's most needy members—the elderly, the disadvantaged, and the mentally impaired. Given the value of health care staff to our country's health and economy, health care professionals continue to be undervalued and underpaid. Poor wages and stressful working conditions exacerbate persistent workforce problems. As a consequence, efficiency and care delivery aren't as good as they should or could be.    Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging Report   (Recommendations to Build a Dementia-Capable Workforce and System amid    COVID-19) The recommendation aims to endorse the GWEP program's recent sanction, which authorizes almost $39 million in funding to expand geriatric expertise across the healthcare system over five years. Such action is anchored because, despite the reality that the number of individuals living with Alzheimer's disease is predicted to increase by 2050, a lack of geriatricians, nurses, and social workers with advanced expertise in geriatrics and complex dementia treatment is on the horizon.·          Mathematica Report COVID-19 Intensifies Nursing Home Workforce Issues (Full report available as a downloadable PDF) Mathematica Report studies show that workforce shortages and turnover also strained nursing homes during the pandemic's climax. Many nurses and licensed nursing assistants have recently quit the industry due to low wages, inadequate working conditions, and the high risk of COVID-19 contamination at a period when their skills and experience are in high demand. Thinking About The Healthcare Workforce In Different Ways   Improving Training   Improve training for healthcare providers. At the moment, there's minimal federal training and federal requirements on states that need to be expanded enormously to raise the skill level.

In this episode, Therese Markow and Paul Irving, Chairman of Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging, discuss the changing landscape of aging and retirement. How has aging changed throughout recent history and what are the challenges that we, as a society, face looking towards the future with the changing family, economic, and society dynamics? We can’t ignore the realities of aging, but we also need to acknowledge the thought patterns and attitudes and how they negatively affect the workforce and society. They continue on to discuss the need for a national conversation on health and what we, as a society, owe to one another.       Key Takeaways: Most of us will, at some point in our lives, be caregivers, need care, or both, and most services are not covered by Medicare. Ageing is the one characteristic we all have in common. While we live in a society today that protects against racism, sexism, or other discrimination, the same is not true for people 50 and over. False assumptions regarding the capacity and ability to engage and contribute is something that needs tackled by all of us. A majority of older adults are fully able to engage, provide value, and offer wisdom, judgment, and experience that adds meaningfully to workplaces, academic institutions, communities, and families.  The question about the composition of workforces and how you enable, support, celebrate, and capitalize on the assets of older workers will be the differentiating factor between success and failure for the 21st century.     "Ageism is just as insidious and just as destructive and just as hurtful as racism, sexism, and other forms of bias and discrimination." —  Paul Irving   Connect with Paul Irving: Milken Institute: Paul Irving    Book Recommendation: Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor E.

On Sept. 17, UC Berkeley hosted the second annual Aging, Research, and Technology Innovation Summit, a daylong event that brought together researchers, entrepreneurs, policymakers and health care workers to tackle some of the biggest questions in aging research. This year’s summit focused on the challenge of understanding and treating neurodegenerative diseases.Randy Schekman, a professor of molecular and cell biology at UC Berkeley, won the 2013 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine. He spoke at the summit about Parkinson's disease — what we already know about the disease and new research efforts that are underway."We have experienced a pandemic in Parkinson's disease," he told the audience. "The incidence ... is increasing dramatically in spite of the fact that the disease was first recognized and reported by clinical symptoms 200 years ago. As the population inexorably ages, we are experiencing a wave of this disease which inexorably takes the lives of those who are afflicted."Schekman, whose wife died from the disease two years ago, went on to describe a new collaborative research initiative — Aligning Science Across Parkinson's (ASAP). Led by Schekman, ASAP was created by the Milken Institute Center for Strategic Philanthropy with support from the Sergey Brin Family Foundation to better understand the underlying causes of Parkinson's disease."We want to know where the disease begins, what the molecules and cells and neural circuits that are affected primarily by the disease, and then how it progresses," he said. "Much of the research that gone on in the clinic has been valuable and important, but there are no cures. ... Many of us feel that what we really need to do is get into the laboratory to understand these basic processes."ASAP's first journal article, "Point of View: Coordinating a new approach to basic research into Parkinson's disease," was published on Sept. 25 in the open-access journal, eLife.Listen and read the transcript on Berkeley News.

Paul Irving is Chairman of the Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging and distinguished scholar in residence at the University of Southern California Davis School Of Gerontology. Paul spent much of his life as a corporate lawyer as chairman and CEO of Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, a law and consulting firm. He is also the author of “The Upside of Aging: How Long Life Is Changing the World of Health, Work, Innovation, Policy, and Purpose,” a Wall Street Journal expert panelist and contributor to PBS Next Avenue and Forbes. When he came to the end of his term as CEO he enrolled at Harvard to look at ‘something new, something interesting’. There, he was asked to do a research project on the impacts of population aging in cities in the U.S.  They came up with an idea about ranking U.S. cities, knowing how ranking systems attract interest and attention, and it was called “Best Cities for Successful Aging”. Eventually Paul became the president of the Milken Institute which is based in Santa Monica, although they have offices in Washington D.C., and Singapore. Each of these is involved in spreading both domestic and global prosperity and improving health. One of the things that the Institutes are now focused on is this question of how population aging will affect individuals, families, communities, businesses, and societies. Some of the trends Paul is seeing in the workforce include:   Across the world populations are much older Workforces are becoming more diverse Enhancement of opportunities for women over the last several decades, the increasing diversity and inclusion in leadership positions There is a risk of talent loss and talent shortage as a result of retirement   There is a very clear need for people to work longer and aspiration for people to work longer   The HR culture has become much more complex     As Paul points out, “we have about a billion people today over 60 in the world. By mid-century, that number will more than double, the number of people in their 60s in the United States will more than double. We have ten thousand people turning 65 a day in the US, and we are now at a point where there are more older adults than kids and teenagers in the world. So the bottom line is that we have a historically unprecedented demographic shift, unlike anything that humankind has seen since the beginning.”   The operating assumption is that older people are: Unwilling to learn, Unable to evolve, and Are less effective performers than the young people   The evidence is simply not there to back up those claims. They are ageist expectations that come from a fear of aging, a fear of death, a fear of physical change and a lack of recognition of the complementary skills of young people and old people. As Paul mentions, organizations can benefit from hiring people over 50, because they bring important things to the table including balance, judgement, wisdom, and experience. And several companies are specifically bringing in older employees for this reason. Companies like Airbnb, BMW, and Michelin have programs and incentives in place to make sure they they have employees ranging in age and experience because they understand that it is critical for their future success. What you will learn in this episode: What the Milken Institute does The impact of the aging workforce Examples of companies such as Airbnb, BMW, and Michelin who are bringing in older employees who can share their wisdom, experience and training What will happen to organizations not paying attention to this trend Paul’s advice for older workers How to create policies for older workers Contact: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulhirving/

Advancements in science and technology make it easier and more fulfilling to grow old. But Paul Irving, chairman of the Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging, says if we are to realize the “longevity dividend,” society must play a bigger role in promoting healthy and purposeful aging. Paul is also the chairman of Encore.org and distinguished scholar in residence at the USC Davis School of Gerontology. He says while medical breakthroughs make it possible to extend lifespans, older people face huge challenges as they embrace longer lives. In a return visit to the podcast, Paul tells Peter Bowes aging should be part of the curriculum for younger people and explains why he believes "intergenerational connection" should be a policy priority for institutions across society and for each one of us individually.In this episode we discover:Why societal support matters for our aging communities.When it is good to have an ‘older person in the room.'How integrating the generations helps promote healthy aging and wiser younger peopleHow Encore.org promotes second acts for the greater good. Why older people are our only growing natural resourceHow social norms should be challenged to benefit young people alongside older adults. Why during these “extraordinary times” there has never been a more important time to "connect generations." Why focussing on people is as important as developing new technology.How we could all benefit from more “meaning and purpose.The possible benefis of moving away from “age segregated” retirement communities.Why educational establishments should embrace young and old students alike.Listen to Paul’s previous LLAMA podcast conversation: Episode 10: Promoting purposeful aging & fighting for older peopleThis is the latest in a series of interviews recorded at the USC Body Computing Conference.
