    Why this work matters

    The case for older-adult services, in numbers.

    Older-adult service organizations help people stay connected, supported and able to live in their communities as needs change. By coordinating nutrition, transportation, in-home help and caregiver support, they solve everyday barriers that medical care alone cannot.

    Market research

    The top 5 business issues older-adult services organizations face.

    Drawn from government agencies, national surveys and policy research. Every figure links to its source.

    1. Funding that constrains service innovation

      Area Agencies on Aging combine Older Americans Act funding with other public and private resources. Most say insufficient funding threatens the flexible service models built during the pandemic.

    2. Workforce constraints

      Agencies need staff and service partners who can support older adults with increasingly complex needs. Workforce problems limit expanded service models even when demand stays high.

    3. Unmet need and HCBS waiting lists

      Organizations must help families find interim support when Medicaid home care is not immediately available. National waiting lists span multiple age and disability groups and keep families waiting.

    4. Layered federal program rules

      Agencies must reconcile person-centered service with the rules attached to public funding. Interpreting and complying with those rules is a substantial management responsibility.

    5. Funder requirements that limit delivery options

      Different programs and funders impose different service-delivery conditions, complicating a consistent operating model. Requirements such as in-person delivery add coordination work.

    Technology challenges

    Where technology fails older-adult services teams — and how CH360 fixes it.

    1. Challenge 1

      Disconnected referrals across aging-service partners

      An older adult's support plan can span meals, transportation, caregiver help and in-home services from different organizations. Disconnected intake and referral records hide which connections succeeded and which needs remain.

      How CH360 helps

      CH360 Care Hubs connect shared intake, referrals and closed-loop referral tracking across partner CBOs. Service plans and engagement notes give teams one place to document the whole support journey.

    2. Challenge 2

      Technology limitations that restrict service flexibility

      Legacy tools and fragmented records make it harder to sustain flexible, coordinated service models. More than half of AAAs name technology as a barrier.[2]

      54%AAAs naming technology limitations as a barrier to continued flexibility

      How CH360 helps

      CH360 brings case management, grant management and Executive Intelligence dashboards onto one HIPAA-compliant platform with role-based access, so leaders see demand, workforce and capacity in one place.

    3. Challenge 3

      Separate grant, service and reimbursement workflows

      Aging-service organizations document grant-supported activities alongside services paid through health care contracts. Each arrangement carries its own deliverables and billing checks.[2]

      51%AAAs with a Medicaid contract with the state, a managed care plan or both

      How CH360 helps

      CH360 grant management tracks awards, budget versus actuals, deliverables and renewals, with AI-assisted funder reports. For eligible HRSN services, HCPCS-coded invoicing and claim submission through Office Ally run a separate reimbursement workflow.
