National Poll on Healthy Aging (NPHA), [United States], July 2022

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.
