The optimal health index scores show that older adults in the North are living at 86% of their optimal health compared with 82% in the South.

Twenty policies, eight academic studies, and four gray literature reports were included in the study, with half of the policies introduced since 2000. Our study criteria yielded few academic valuations tied to caregiver policies and few policies including research provisions.

Future policies and the studies examining them should incorporate cost outcomes and equity as focus areas and disaggregate data by vulnerable groups to ensure value and equity in caregiver support legislation.
