Aging stigma and ageism can negatively impact a person's decision to seek care and the quality of care they receive. This review highlights the ways aging stigma is associated with health outcomes, including hospitalizations, cognition, psychological well-being, and physical health. The authors suggest future research includes sub-analysis with narrower age ranges (e.g., 10-year spans) instead of the typical range of 65 and older.
