Household and Living Arrangement ProjectionsExtension of ProFamy Model to Project Elderly Disability Status and Home-Based Care Costs, with an Illustrative Application

Household and Living Arrangement Projections: Extension of ProFamy Model to Project Elderly... [In this chapter presents a substantial extension of the ProFamy model by introducing and estimating changes in older adults’ disability status as well as related home-based care costs, with an illustrative application to China. Our extended model combines the projection of family structure, living arrangements, and disability statuses for elders aged 65+ with the projection of family structure and living arrangements for the younger population aged 0–64. The extended model projects not only disability statuses and home-based care needs and costs for older adults, but also age-sex-specific numbers and family household structures of the working-age population, i.e., the caregivers for the disabled elderly.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[In this chapter presents a substantial extension of the ProFamy model by introducing and estimating changes in older adults’ disability status as well as related home-based care costs, with an illustrative application to China. Our extended model combines the projection of family structure, living arrangements, and disability statuses for elders aged 65+ with the projection of family structure and living arrangements for the younger population aged 0–64. The extended model projects not only disability statuses and home-based care needs and costs for older adults, but also age-sex-specific numbers and family household structures of the working-age population, i.e., the caregivers for the disabled elderly.]
