Related GAO Reports and Activities in Fiscal Year 1995 Gao ID: HEHS-96-82 March 6, 1996

This booklet provides a compilation of GAO's fiscal year 1995 products and ongoing work on older Americans. Because the elderly are one of the fastest-growing segments of American society today, Congress faces a host of issues--from health care to social security to pensions--in which the federal government will play an important role. This booklet is divided into three sections, which summarize different types of GAO products relating to older Americans: reports and correspondence, testimony before Congress, and ongoing work. Overall, health, income security, and veterans issues were the areas most frequently addressed by GAO work on older Americans.

GAO work during FY 1995 covered: (1) such issues as federal government employment activities, health care, housing, income security, and veterans' affairs; and (2) reports directed primarily at older Americans or affecting older Americans as one of several target groups and congressional testimonies on issues related to older Americans.
