Aging
Aging, a biological continuum beginning at birth and ending at death, is an ascribed status like ethnicity, race, and nationality. The population of the world is aging.

An Analysis of Types and Costs of Health Care Services Provided to an Elderly Inner-City Population

A solution worthy of consideration is the use of health maintenance organizations (HMOs) in this capacity. An analysis of the services provided by a multidisciplinary health care system to 150 inner-city elderly, many of whom were "homebound," reversal 1) this population is not homogen…
