"We knew in 2011 when our baby boomers started turning 65 that this is going to be our future that we need to be prepared for," says Dr. Samir Sinha, NIA Director of Health Policy Research.

"Last year, the oldest baby boomers turned 76, and they most probably live independently. They haven't started hitting these critical ages that are usually associated with needing care and support," says Bonnie-Jeanne MacDonald, NIA Director of Financial Security Research.
