Ageing populations put a strain on the health and social system
Geriatric healthcare refers to the health and care of the elderly. Particularly, this branch of the healthcare system addresses older adults’ healthcare needs and prevents and treats diseases among the older population, such as heart and/or respiratory diseases, cancer, and dementia. For instance, heart diseases and tumors were among the leading death causes in the United States. In most countries, to treat such diseases among others, people need either public or private insurance. In 2022, United Healthcare was the most valuable healthcare service brand worldwide.
