AnnotationFactors determining financial management assistance use by older people is investigated, along with the suitability of fit of the Andersen behaviour model. In a study sample of 5263 older respondents aged 70+ from the 2004 US Health and Retirement Study (HRS), the Andersen models successfully explains older people's financial management assistance use.
