Our population is aging. According to the Urban Institute:

“The number of Americans ages 65 and older will more than double over the next 40 years, reaching 80 million in 2040. The number of adults ages 85 and older, the group most often needing help with basic personal care, will nearly quadruple between 2000 and 2040.”

And the aging population continues to drive national healthcare spending.

If we’re ever going to reign in our healthcare spending, then we will need to find ways to take better care of our aging population.

According to the team from Blooming Health, medical care is only part of the solution. We need to connect people, especially those from underserved communities, with the resources that will help them thrive. That means addressing their food, housing, safety, and security needs. And it means finding ways to give them meaning and purpose.

That’s where Blooming Health comes in. They exist to empower healthy aging in place. They help community-based organizations (CBOs) align older adults with the resources they need to thrive. Their technology is designed to meet the elderly where they are and strives to remove friction from the process at every step.

On this episode, we explore what it takes to meet older adults where they are, speak to them in the language they prefer, and track results in a way that enables the health system to appropriately invest in their well-being.
