The Commonwealth Fund Spotlights LSA Senior Connect

A primary goal at Lutheran Services in America is to improve seniors’ quality of life to enable them to live healthy, independent lives at home with dignity and respect. To this end, in 2019 we launched LSA Senior Connect, an innovative service coordination model that connects seniors with chronic health conditions to needed resources in their communities. Importantly, LSA Senior Connect encompasses the best-in-class characteristics of an effective model and can be deployed at a grassroots level through our nationwide delivery system of health and human services organizations.

In a sign of growing interest in this innovative program, the Commonwealth Fund featured LSA Senior Connect and its impact on seniors earlier this year in its Transforming Care publication. In the feature “Beyond Medical Care: What Happens When Medicare Advantage Plans Cover Social Services,” the Commonwealth Fund spotlights a successful LSA Senior Connect pilot with 465 residents of a low-income senior housing facility in Toledo, Ohio. Staff at Genacross Lutheran Services addressed the majority of 385 senior needs by connecting seniors to community resources or benefits (you will see coverage of LSA Senior Connect in the “Role of Community-Based Organizations” section of the article).
