Objective: Evaluate the concept and implications of health disparities and how environments and populations impact health outcomes. Introduction: This essay will provide you an opportunity to examine three main impacts on health outcomes for the aging and chronically ill populations in the United States. Each of these impacts leads to health disparities. First, you will address the effect on the healthcare system of long-term care for the aging and chronically ill population. Second, you will discuss the effect of a social influencer—in this case, poverty—on both individual health and healthcare delivery for the aging and chronically ill. And, third, you will use the concepts of social justice to discuss equity and the removal of disparities in health and healthcare access for the aging and chronically ill.
