This annual report details the progress and priorities for the Longevity Ready Maryland (LRM) multisector plan for aging. The plan aims to enhance the well-being and quality of life for all Marylanders by integrating a ten-year multisector plan with the federally-mandated State Plan on Aging. Key strategic pillars include building a longevity ecosystem, promoting economic opportunity, preparing Marylanders to afford longevity, and optimizing health, wellness, and mobility, with specific priorities outlined for 2026 to ensure a cohesive and forward-thinking approach to supporting aging citizens.
The meeting included introductions by the Chair, noting increasing state-level activity in palliative care and acknowledging council vacancies. The council discussed recent meetings with the Maryland Department of Health focusing on the AHEAD Model and palliative care integration. The legislative outlook highlighted anticipated bills, including potential reintroduction of physician-assisted suicide legislation and concerns regarding the Maryland Health Care Decisions Act, such as public confusion about Advanced Care Planning (ACP) terminology and the need for education funding. Technology updates covered document accessibility challenges within CRISP, specifically concerning over 378,000 inaccessible ACP documents, and outreach efforts to increase ACP completion. The council also discussed upcoming events, ongoing membership recruitment for 11 open positions, and proposed quarterly meetings, with potential increases during the legislative session. A proposal for a short public-facing annual report for 2025 was introduced, and it was announced that the Maryland MOLST document would be translated into Spanish.
