National Poll on Healthy Aging (NPHA), [United States], January 2023

By tapping into the perspectives of older adults
and their caregivers, the University of Michigan National Poll on Healthy Aging
(NPHA) helps inform the public, health care providers, policymakers, and
advocates on issues related to health, health care and health policy affecting
Americans 50 years of age and older. The poll is designed as a recurring,
nationally representative household survey of U.S. adults, which allows
assessment of issues in a timely fashion. Launched in spring 2017, the NPHA is
modeled after the highly successful University of Michigan C.S. Mott Children's
Hospital National Poll on Children's Health. The NPHA grew out of a strong
interest in aging-related issues among many members of the University of
Michigan Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation (IHPI), which brings
together more than 600 faculty who study health, health care and the impacts of
health policy. IHPI directs the poll which is sponsored by AARP and Michigan
Medicine, the University of Michigan academic medical center.

通过吸纳老年人及其照护者的视角，密歇根大学全国健康老龄化调查（NPHA）助力向公众、医疗服务提供者、政策制定者及倡导者传递与影响50岁及以上美国人的健康、医疗服务及健康政策相关的信息。该调查旨在作为一项针对美国成年人的重复性全国代表性家庭调查，能够及时评估相关议题。NPHA于2017年春季启动，其模式借鉴了密歇根大学C.S.莫特儿童医院极具影响力的全国儿童健康调查。NPHA源于密歇根大学医疗政策与创新研究所（IHPI）众多成员对老龄化相关议题的浓厚兴趣，该研究所汇聚了600余名研究健康、医疗服务及健康政策影响的教员（faculty）。IHPI负责该调查的管理工作，调查由美国退休人员协会（AARP）及密歇根大学学术医疗中心密歇根医学（Michigan Medicine）共同赞助。
