AnnotationFindings from the social research evaluation of the Benefits Agency Better Government for Older People (BA BGOP) prototypes are presented. These tested a series of service design features including: integrated working, information surgeries, home visits, roadshows, telephone advice lines, and new information technology services. The aim of the evaluation was to evaluate customer, staff and stakeholder attitudes towards BA BGOP prototypes, and to explore their experiences of these new ways of delivering benefit advice and information to older people, in this instance those aged 50 and over.
