“Health, nursing home quality make Colorado ‘Best State for Aging’,” by Lois A. Bowers, McKnight’s Senior Living

“High-quality nursing homes and a healthy senior citizen population put Colorado on top of U.S. News & World Report’s ‘Best States for Aging’ ranking, the magazine said. Alaska came in last on the list. Maine, in second place, and Hawaii, in third, ranked where they did because of their strong Medicare programs and the high life expectancy of their residents, according to U.S. News. Iowa and South Dakota rounded out the top five. . . . See all of the rankings here and other articles in the magazine’s editorial package here.”

LTC Comment (from Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform):

Nursing homes and Medicare make for a great “aging” state? How about home care and LTC insurance?
