Missouri Releases Master Plan on Aging After Three-Year Process
Missouri published its "Aging with Dignity" Master Plan on Aging in February 2026, the result of a nearly three-year planning effort that gathered input from more than 10,000 residents. The plan is intended to coordinate policies and services for older adults across state agencies and community partners as Missouri's aging population grows. A Center for Health Care Strategies piece describes the plan's development and goals as a model of multisector coordination for aging services. The write-up does not specify an implementation timeline or funding mechanism.
State Medicaid agencies and LTSS stakeholders should watch how Missouri's cross-agency coordination model shapes future home- and community-based service policy and budget priorities.
