Key themes include the influence of early advantages on later-life economic outcomes (the cumulative advantage/cumulative disadvantage hypothesis); the relationship between inequalities in economic status and inequalities in health status and access to health care; and the consequences of societal choices concerning retirement income systems and policies for financing acute and long-term health care.},

We examine arguments for targeting incremental coverage for older Americans in these ways. While access to retiree health insurance is declining, we question whether targeting loss of employer insurance can address many older Americans{\textquoteright} insurance problems. Furthermore, focusing on persons ages sixty-two to sixty-four misses a large group of persons in poor health with limited resources. Efforts to improve coverage for older Americans should consider trade-offs between defining eligibility by age versus ability to pay.},

	abstract = {The survey analyses described in this report are intended to help policymakers understand better the health insurance problems that confront Americans who are approaching age 65 and Medicare eligibility. A clear understanding of these problems is crucial to deciding  whether or not to proceed with incremental coverage reforms for older,  pre-Medicare  adults. We had four specific research objectives: 1. To learn about the transitions in health insurance coverage experienced by older adults prior to age 65, especially as they relate to changes in employment and health; 2. To look at how well a policy allowing people to  buy in  to the Medicare program at age 62 (as proposed by former President Clinton and others) would compensate for the loss of employer-based insurance;  3. To see if there are compelling arguments, in addition to early retirement and the loss of employer coverage, to target older Americans in particular for coverage expansions; 4. To explore the empirical justification for targeting people age 62 and older, rather than setting eligibility for a buy-in at some other age.  More generally, we wanted to produce a compendium of relevant statistics that would be useful to policy analysts and others who are considering coverage reforms for older Americans.},

Using data from the Health and Retirement Survey, detailed descriptive analysis and a comparison of regression models for health and financial capital are presented. The results, although preliminary and based on cross-section data, suggest possible racial differences in the connection between health and wealth and deserve further study.</p>},
