- Abstract
A mail survey of all state and local health planning agencies and telephone interviews with asample of Older Americans Act agencies revealed that coordination between aging and health planning agencies is directly associated with the level of attention given to long-term carepriorities by the latter agencies. The findings suggest that under certain conditions,coordination strategies may be important for policy change. These findings have implications for Older Americans Act debates regarding appropriate roles of aging agencies in improving care for the elderly.
