DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed project will develop a data system to assess the health and other characteristics of local 60 plus populations in greater detail than is currently possible. The NEED-PLUS project ("Neighborhood Estimates of Expected Demand - Planning and Utilization System") uses data from the National Health and Retirement Survey (HRS) and ties them to a unique segmentation system that classifies the nation's older population. This geodemographic approach enables the creation of innovative local area estimates of need, with no risk to confidentiality. A proprietary, easy-to-use, Internet-based system will make these data available to a broad audience in the form of reports, charts, maps, spreadsheets, and GIS output. A subset of the HRS data will be incorporated into a system that generates profiles of a given area's health, retirement, and other age-related characteristics, using a methodology that protects HRS respondent identity. Following an assessment of a variety of methods for deriving local area estimates from the HRS data, the system will produce preliminary samples of localized reports on the older population, including key characteristics and descriptions of their needs. Input from experts and potential users will help create a data delivery system that allows users to define an area and select their own reports. A plan to market the product to a broader range of potential users will also be developed. Having more detailed information about a locality's older population will help service providers assess the need for different types of housing and enable them to offer the best mix of home and community-based services, health services, and other assistance. It could also provide insight into the spatial aspects of disparities in health status, health conditions, and access to care. Anyone who plans services for an aging population and who must account for an aging community's shifts in resource consumption and availability could benefit from NEED-PLUS. Understanding individual communities and how they change with age is an essential aspect of keeping those communities healthy. Creation of NEED-PLUS will make useful, age-specific data more broadly available and will provide improved care and better lives for the elderly.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的项目将开发一个数据系统，以评估当地60多个人口的健康和其他特征，比目前可能的更详细。NEED-PLUS项目（“预期需求的邻里估计-规划和利用系统”）使用来自国家健康和退休调查（HRS）的数据，并将其与对全国老年人口进行分类的独特细分系统联系起来。这种地理人口学方法能够创造创新的当地需求估计，而不会有保密风险。一个专有的、易于使用的、以因特网为基础的系统将以报告、图表、地图、电子表格和地理信息系统输出的形式向广大受众提供这些数据。HRS数据的一个子集将被纳入一个系统，该系统使用保护HRS受访者身份的方法，生成给定地区的健康、退休和其他年龄相关特征的概况。在评估了从人力资源调查数据得出当地估计数的各种方法之后，该系统将编制关于老年人口的当地报告的初步样本，包括其主要特点和需求说明。专家和潜在用户的投入将有助于建立一个数据提供系统，使用户能够确定一个领域并选择自己的报告。还将制定一项计划，向更广泛的潜在用户推销该产品。掌握一个地区老年人口的更详细信息将有助于服务提供者评估对不同类型住房的需求，并使他们能够提供最佳的家庭和社区服务、保健服务和其他援助。它还可以提供对健康状况、健康条件和获得保健机会方面差异的空间方面的深入了解。任何为老龄化人口规划服务的人，以及必须考虑老龄化社区在资源消耗和可用性方面的变化的人，都可以从NEED PLUS中受益。了解个体社区以及它们如何随着年龄的增长而变化是保持这些社区健康的一个重要方面。NEED-PLUS的创建将使有用的、特定年龄的数据更广泛地可用，并将为老年人提供更好的护理和更好的生活。
