Factors Affecting Health Policies for Older People in Iran.
Globally, the number and proportion of people aged 60 years and older is growing fast. As people age, health needs become more complex, and the health system's responsiveness to older people's needs requires evidence-informed policies. Hence, this study explores the factors affecting the health policy development process for older people in Iran. We conducted 32 interviewers with people aged 60 years and older and 21 interviews with key informants involved in policy making related to older people. Qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Actors and stakeholders, policy structure, selected health policy processes, the health care service delivery system, government financial support, and community and culture building are the most influential factors in health policy making for older people. Government policies and health priority interventions are needed to address these influential factors for older people to ensure healthy aging over the life course.

The journal regularly addresses a wide array of issues such as long-term services and supports, home- and community-based care, nursing-home care, assisted living, long-term care financing, financial security, employment and training, public and private pension coverage, housing, transportation, health care access, financing, and quality, family dynamics, and retirement. These topics are of significant importance to the field of aging and social policy, reflecting the journal's commitment to presenting a comprehensive view of the challenges and solutions related to aging populations around the world.
