A look at Older Americans
Persons 65 years or older
• 41.4 million in 2011
• Represented 13.3% of the U.S. population,
• 1+ of 8 Americans
• Number of older Americans increased by
18% since 2000, compared to an increase of
9.4% for the < 65 population
• Number of Americans 45-64 who will reach
65 over the next two decades – increased by
33% during this period. (DHHS AOA)
Chronic Condition Management
 Number of people with chronic conditions is
rapidly rising. Between 2000 and 2030, the
number of Americans with one or more
chronic conditions will increase 37%, an
increase of 46 million people.
 About 28% of Americans have two or more
chronic conditions and they are responsible
for two-thirds of health care spending.
 In the Medicare program over two-thirds of
the expenditures are for beneficiaries with
five or more chronic conditions. ( Chronic care -making the
case for ongoing care- Robert Wood Johnson)
Hospitals Are Being
Penalized for Certain Readmissions
Reducing Hospital Readmissions
• October 2012 CMS began ranking hospitals
based on 30 day readmission rate for heart
attacks, pneumonia, heart failure
• In 2015 the program will expand to include
COPD and other conditions
• Poor performing hospitals will have all Medicare
payments reduced by an amount equal to value
of payments for excess readmission. (MedPac 2012)
PHCAST and Home Care Aide Courses: An
Industry Perspective
• Growing need for continuum of care
• Rising cost of care & shortage of trained workers
• Greater efficiency in healthcare delivery (lowering
cost while improving delivery)
• Promote quality care for increasing numbers of
older adults and persons with disabilities
( Division of Aging and Adult Services)
Home Care Aide Training
How It Can Be Used
• Assisting agencies in the professional
development of current staff
• Give agencies a “raise the bar” level of staff
when partnering with care transition entities
by having aides that have more than
minimum training requirements

their resume by having increased knowledge
specific to Home Care
