ADLs / IADLs and Medicare beneficiaries


www.kff.org

Nearly three in ten beneficiaries (29 percent) are limited in their ability to handle basic activities of daily living (ADLs), such as bathing and eating, with even higher shares among the nonelderly disabled population (42 percent) and those ages 85 and older (48 percent). A similar share of all beneficiaries (30 percent) are limited in their ability to do instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs), such as housework, preparing meals, and using the telephone. Such limitations affect a greater share of nonelderly disabled beneficiaries (54 percent) and those ages 85 and over (43 percent).
