A comparison of recent state efforts for the elderly shows wide variation in the extensiveness of innovative responses. Overall, the states have been fairly reluctant to undertake new financial commitments, but have engaged in a wide variety of regulatory policy responses. The sources of innovation in state policy can be attributed to differences in the following major factors: problem magnitude, financial resources, political attitudes and traditions, political capacity, and leadership and lobbying efforts. The states have frequently displayed predictable responses in relation to past levels of policy action, but there are important instances of both "under-achievers" and "unexpected achievers" on specific policies. The level of innovative activity which occurred suggests the importance of lobbying and leadership roles by and for the elderly at the state level. |
