projected to rise from 0.95% of GDP in 2007 to projected to rise from 0.95% of GDP in 2007 to 1.6% of GDP in 2032 under current funding 1.6% of GDP in 2032 under current funding systemsystem
Various options for reforming the means test Various options for reforming the means test could take this to 1.9% of GDP in 2032, while could take this to 1.9% of GDP in 2032, while free personal care could raise this to 1.8% of free personal care could raise this to 1.8% of GDP or moreGDP or more
Change to pattern of care in line with Wanless Change to pattern of care in line with Wanless could take this to 2.1% of GDP in 2032, or could take this to 2.1% of GDP in 2032, or more under different funding variantsmore under different funding variants
The benefits of a housing disregard on care go The benefits of a housing disregard on care go more to those on lower incomes than free more to those on lower incomes than free personal care (before considering how they personal care (before considering how they would be financed)would be financed)

Policy implicationsPolicy implications
To keep pace with demand Either more people will need to provide
intense informal care or more formal services will need to be
provided Any increase in intense care provision
may be associated with lower labour market participation
‘Care gap’ raises questions about sustainability of policies that rely heavily on informal care in future

projections has included a number of aspects of informal care supply PSSRU long-term care finance model takes
into account marital status projections Work on informal care supply by children

IntroductionIntroduction
Sources of Informal Care: Comparison of Sources of Informal Care: Comparison of ELSA and GHS ELSA and GHS (Pickard 2008b) (Pickard 2008b)
Key data source is English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA)
Objective is to use 2002 ELSA data to analyse variations in receipt of informal care by disabled older people, by age, gender, disability, marital status, household type, housing tenure + availability of living children and socio-economic variables
Link analysis of informal care to receipt of formal services in PSSRU model
MAP2030 Work Package 5 : Informal MAP2030 Work Package 5 : Informal CareCare
Introduction (continued)Introduction (continued)
PSSRU model uses GHS data to link informal & formal care
Comparability in analysis of informal care between the GHS and ELSA is important
First stage has been comparison of receipt of informal care by disabled older people in 2002 ELSA and 2001/02 GHS
Focus on sources of informal care, in particular receipt of informal care by disabled older people from adult children
MAP2030 Work Package 5: MAP2030 Work Package 5: Informal CareInformal CareInitial analysisInitial analysis
Differences of definitions of disability and informal care in ELSA and GHS but have been brought together (Pickard 2008b)
Similar proportion of disabled older people receive informal care from adult children in 2002 ELSA and 2001/02 GHS
Characteristics of disabled older people with care from children similar (bivariate analysis) increases sharply with age is twice as likely for women as men is associated with widowed, divorced or
separated older people, either living alone or with others
is more likely for tenants than owner-occupiers
MAP2030 Work Package 5: MAP2030 Work Package 5: Informal CareInformal Care
On-going analysisOn-going analysis Currently, multivariate analysis of receipt of
informal care by disabled older people from different sources in ELSA using variables not available in the GHS,
including availability of living children and socio-economic variables
To be followed by linkage to projections of availability of kin
and linkage to projections of demand for formal
servicesContact: [email protected]
