- W790051435 abstract "System change is underway and will be challenging and disruptive. The key question is, How well will the adapt?he Older Americans Act (OAA) has done a remarkable job of guiding the through half a century of development and progress. From the earliest days of planning grants and Area-wide Model Projects, the now has become a nationwide system of state units on (SUA), area agencies on (AAA), more than 200 agencies serving Native Americans on tribal lands, and more than 30,000 service providers of all kinds.The Basic Design of the Aging NetworkThe differences in the way states have organized networks of AAAs and local agency partners have always been substantial. Thus, there has always been a debate over how accurately the term described this system. But for the first forty years or so, the guiding principles embraced in the original architecture of the OAA seemed appropriate and durable: federal author- ity and policy direction; state administration and operational policymaking; local services man- agement; and development of local solutions.The idea was that the aging network would do (and does) many things in common across the country, but would do them in ways that reflected the extraordinary diversity of states and communities. Information, Referral and Assistance (IR&A) (and the latter-day long-term services and supports [LTSS] special- ized version, Aging and Disability Resource Centers, or ADRC), congregate meals and home-delivered meals, senior centers, trans- portation programs, the Ombudsman Program, area-wide planning, and advocacy are now widely known, albeit often by different names.This architecture was thought to be critically important because the OAA never was intended to be an entitlement program. It was known early on that there were going to be too many older people for an entitlement approach to be feasible, and that responding to the diverse needs of our nation's older adults needed to be a shared responsibility among national, state, and local governments, and voluntary agencies.When the OAA was forged and the began to form, it was recognized by all that some older people would need many types of supports while others needed little to no assistance. Many older people could meet their own needs with the help of families or friends and preferred to do so, as a matter of dignity and to maintain the maximum sense of independence. For others, the only assistance needed was help accessing information or advice from someone with expertise and knowledge of the resources available in almost every American community.The perception was that at any point in time, the vast majority of older adults did not need help from anyone. But when something changed-and changed quickly, as often hap- pens-older people and their families would need access to reliable assistance immediately. It was the network's job to let consumers know where to turn when in need, and to work with communities, including healthcare systems, to help people to delay that tipping point, and prepare for its arrival.The Challenges and Impacts of Integrating Healthcare and LTSSThe emergence of Medicaid-funded LTSS pro- grams began to differentiate states that were heavily engaged in developing these service systems through their networks and those that were not. By the mid-nineties, the paradigm had clearly shifted to the point where SUAs and the AAAs in their states were distinctly different, and similarities across the were reduced. All states shared responsibilities for developing broadly available community-based services, like nutrition programs, IR&A, and the like. But at the national level, the development of LTSS service systems and the related elements of infrastruc- ture became the main areas of empha- sis for both the government and for advocates from states, which were more advanced with regard to home- and com- munity-based care, now known as LTSS. …" @default.
