Forecasting and Financing Healthy Ageing and Aged Care in Australia

该项目旨在量化退休后慢性疾病和功能性残疾的未来风险，提出旨在加强健康老龄化、生活方式质量和老年护理服务的融资战略。该项目致力于制定一个框架，使政府和私营部门参与为老年人显著增加的保健费用供资。预期成果包括可持续的退休收入方案，以缓解养老金和老年护理融资等社会举措带来的财政压力，同时提高老年人的生活水平。该项目预计将使澳大利亚处于研究退休人员面临的财务挑战的可持续解决方案的最前沿。

This project aims to quantify future risks of chronic illness and functional disability in retirement, proposing financing strategies aimed at enhancing healthy ageing, lifestyle quality and aged care provisions. The project devotes to devising a framework integrating government and private sector participation in funding health costs which increase significantly in older ages. The expected outcome includes sustainable retirement income scenarios for easing fiscal pressure from social initiatives such as age pension and aged care financing at the same time improving living standards for seniors. The project expects to place Australia at the forefront of research on sustainable solutions to financial challenges facing retirees.
