Abstract
AbstractIn response to some of the challenges that have been articlulated about the future of Geriatrics, we describe a more positive view and value proposition for the field. Health professionals with specific training in Geriatrics are a natural fit for a variety of roles in value‐based care (VBC) programs and health systems. These roles include serving as educators for primary care health professionals and specialists in person‐centered care of older adults, serving as consultants on geriatric conditions and syndromes in a co‐management model of care, becoming effective leaders in VBC programs and health systems, and conducting quality improvement initiatives to build on the evidence‐base for the management of common conditions in the older population. We further recommend that VBC programs and systems support Centers of Excellence or Institutes to implement these strategies within and Age‐Friendly, learning system approach.
