Food insecurity among older adults has severe effects on quality of life and health while reducing one’s chances of aging in place. Over 10% of older adults are food insecure, and food insecurity has disproportionate impacts on people who are Black or Hispanic, dualeligible, and/or live alone. With government relief falling short, thousands of older adults are stuck on waiting lists for programs like Meals on Wheels, and at risk of starvation. This translates to larger expenses for health systems and health plans, as seniors who struggle with food insecurity experience more hospitalizations and have higher cost of care.
