This study explores how age may differentiate the associations between disability status, financial strain, and the subjective health and well-being of adults with long-term services and supports needs in California.
This study explores how age may differentiate the associations between disability status, financial strain, and the subjective health and well-being of adults with long-term services and supports needs in California.
This policy brief presents data on the health and well-being of adults with a disability or with long-time chronic conditions who have needs for Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) and compares their health status with that of the general California population. It further examines how health outcomes vary by race and ethnicity, employment status, unmet needs for LTSS, and access to health care. The data are from the 2019–2020 California Long-Term Services and Supports (CA-LTSS) study, a follow-on survey of the 2019–2020 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS).

Researchers conducted the RIGHTS Study, developing a population-based survey of Asian and Latinx immigrants in California that measured 23 exclusionary experiences under health care and social services, education, labor/employment, and immigration enforcement policies.

Although exclusionary immigration policies are associated with fear of deportation and avoidance of public benefits, relationships between immigration enforcement policy and public charge policies are largely unknown. Authors tested the relationship between immigrants' experiences with law enforcement and their concern about public charge.

As Californians age and more people live longer with multiple chronic and disabling conditions, health and social care program administrators must anticipate and plan delivery of supportive services that respond to the needs of a rapidly growing and diversifying population.

Unmet Needs for Help at Home: How Older Adults and Adults With Disabilities Are Faring in California
About 14 million adults in the United States need home and community-based services (HCBS) to maintain their independence and support their quality of life. The ability to access long-term services and supports (LTSS) at home — both paid and unpaid — is essential to maintaining the physical and mental health and well-being of older adults and adults with disabilities.

People with disabilities who need help to remain at home and maintain their independence are at increased financial risk due to out-of-pocket spending on health care and on home- and community-based services. Rates of economic hardship are especially high for those who need long-term services and supports (LTSS), even among those with substantial financial resources.

In order to plan for the Multipurpose Senior Services Program (MSSP) and Community Based Adult Services (CBAS) at the state and local levels, the California Department of Aging (CDA) contracted with the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research to identify the number of potential eligible individuals likely to use these programs.
