The heterogeneity in aging-related degradation has significant societal and economic implications for the design and funding of healthcare systems and long-term care services. The recognition of diverse degradation trajectories among the aging population underscores the need for personalized and targeted healthcare interventions, which can lead to improved health outcomes and quality of life. From a societal perspective, understanding degradation heterogeneity can inform policy decisions related to healthcare resource allocation, workforce training, and infrastructure development. Economically, addressing the diverse needs of aging subgroups can optimize healthcare spending by directing resources where they are most needed, potentially reducing overall healthcare costs in the long run. Moreover, designing healthcare systems that account for degradation heterogeneity can enhance efficiency, reduce hospital readmissions, and improve patient satisfaction, ultimately benefiting both individuals and society as a whole.
