title: National Poll on Healthy Aging (NPHA), [United States], January 2023

description: By tapping into the perspectives of older adults
and their caregivers, the University of Michigan National Poll on Healthy Aging
(NPHA) helps inform the public, health care providers, policymakers, and
advocates on issues related to health, health care and health policy affecting
Americans 50 years of age and older. The poll is designed as a recurring,
nationally representative household survey of U.S. adults, which allows
assessment of issues in a timely fashion. Launched in spring 2017, the NPHA is
modeled after the highly successful University of Michigan C.S. Mott Children's
Hospital National Poll on Children's Health. The NPHA grew out of a strong
interest in aging-related issues among many members of the University of
Michigan Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation (IHPI), which brings
together more than 600 faculty who study health, health care and the impacts of
health policy. IHPI directs the poll which is sponsored by AARP and Michigan
Medicine, the University of Michigan academic medical center.
