Established in 2007, the Katz Policy Institute (KPI) was named in honor of the Benjamin Rose Institute on Aging's Distinguished Scholar Sidney Katz, MD.
KPI serves as an agent for change by influencing public policy decisions that impact older adults and those who care for them, as well as professionals and paraprofessionals who serve elders.
KPI staff inform and educate municipal, county, regional, state and federal policy makers. KPI works collaboratively with other advocates to formulate policies, to identify, educate and mobilize others, and to convene in-district meetings with policy makers.
KPI houses Benjamin Rose's Medicare Call Center, which assists more than 1,000 callers each year in accessing their Medicare Benefits
KPI works closely with the other divisions of the Benjamin Rose Institute on Aging to advance the health, independence and dignity of older adults. |
