AnnotationIn 2001, the UK launched the National Service Framework for Older People (NSF), calling for the "rooting out of age discrimination" in all aspects of health care financing, planning and service delivery. This issue brief explores the challenges we face in promoting age equality in health care delivery. It is based on a study of age discrimination and measures to achieve age equality in eight European countries. The full report, 'Promoting age equality in health care: a study of 8 European countries', is available on the Alliance for Health & the Future website (www.healthandfuture.org). (KJ).
