| Annotation | This paper has been prepared for the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) as a contribution to their wider study for the Disability Rights Commission (DRC). It presents projections to 2022 on the numbers of older disabled people in Great Britain, the numbers of older clients of long-term care services, and associated public and private expenditure. These projections are intended as important background to discussion about the services needed for future cohorts of older disabled people. The paper describes the PSSRU long-term care projection model, focusing on the parts of the model concerned with disability and informal care. It describes the key projections, produced under a set of the base care assumptions. It looks at what happens when these assumptions change. First, it reports on scenarios based on varying the assumptions around factors exogenous to long-term care policy, including disability and unit costs. Second, it describes scenarios based on varying patterns of care, which include two scenarios that make changes to the patterns of formal care. (RH). |
