LaRhae Knatterud, Director of
Aging Transformation for the Minnesota Department of Human Services
"Own Your Future - Long-Term Care Financing for Boomers"
·
LaRhae's presentation
will discuss Minnesota's aging population and how over the next 20
years, we will see an historic and permanent shift in the numbers of
persons over 65 and 85. The
numbers of persons 65+ will double between 2010 and 2030, rising to 1.3
million, and the numbers of 85+ will triple, rising to 325,000. This demographic change brings with
it many opportunities and challenges.
One of the biggest challenges is providing health and long-term
care for an aging society. While
the family provides the vast majority of care, an increasing number will
not be able to do so. There will
be a need to purchase long-term care, an expensive service: in fact,
the average annual cost of long-term care in Minnesota is twice the
median household income. Because
of this, many turn to public funded programs to obtain needed long-term
care. But with historic
increases in the number of older persons needing help, this could bring
with it unsustainable budgetary increases.
·
As part of LaRhae's
responsibilites, she is the chief staff person for Aging 2030, a project
to prepare the state for a permanent shift in the age of the
population, beginning with the large baby boom generation that began
turning 65 in 2011. The goal is to transform Minnesota's systems ands
services so that we are ready for the demographic changes that have now
begin. In addition she coordinates DHS efforts on long-term care
financing reform. LaRhae has authored several legislative reports on
matters such as long-term care and most recently on Alzheimer's
disease. She has a BA from Augsburg College in Minneapolis, and a
master's degressin public administration from the Humphrey Institute of
Public Affairs, University of Minnesota, with major concentrations in
gerontology and health care policy.

Winter
Networking Event 2012 Recap
As
a professional organization dedicated to education and networking, we
held our first ever pure networking event on March 6 at the Ramada
Plaza Minneapolis. Twenty-four of our fellow LOMA members came together
for a brief social hour, cocktails and appetizers, followed by a
structured networking activity - think speed dating! Everyone wore
nametags with their occupation listed to facilitate conversation. Since
we were test piloting this type of event we offered free admission with
a cash bar. 94% of those who responded to the after-event survey said
the networking component was good or excellent with 82% saying it was
better than they had expected. One person commented "The
structured networking activity was a little awkward at first; however,
I was surprised to find that overall I really enjoyed it."
As
the LOMA Twin City President I'd have to say we have a friendly,
down-to-earth, non-intimidating membership. If you're in doubt about
events like this in the future, take a chance and give it a try. We are
contemplating adding an intentional networking component to future
meetings. If anyone has ideas about how we can incorporate more
networking please call or send us an email. We'd love to hear from you!
