Hope For Seniors With Significant Hearing Loss

A group of people giving thumbs up to the camera.


Thanks to a cochlear implant (CI)—a surgically imbedded bionic ear, many seniors with significant hearing loss, some even deaf, have been able to regain their hearing after an operation which seems no less than a miracle.  Unfortunately, only 5-7% of those who could benefit from the surgery opt to get the surgery.  A scant 739K of them have been implanted worldwide.  That’s sad because loss of hearing can lead to other health issues such as cognitive decline.  The decisive factor in whether or not you will benefit from CI is that you have a healthy auditory nerve.  “Hearing is a major mode of communication,†J. Thomas Roland Jr., a surgeon and chairman of the Department of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery at NYU, told AARP Bulletin.  “If you give that back to someone, the brain is rocking again.  It is doing what it is supposed to do,†he said.

New Facebook & Instagram Elder Abuse Scams

An old woman with a bruised eye and hand on her face.


There is never a dearth of elder abuse scams, and with many people staying at home more due to COVID-19, it’s no surprise that the online shopping sector has been plagued with scams.  One man told AARP Bulletin that he ordered a stationary bicycle through Facebook and it never arrived.  Many Facebook and Instagram users have reported purchasing expensive items using their PayPal account, and the vendor then sends some worthless knick knack, using this as proof of delivery when the transaction is disputed with PayPal or a credit card company.  You should always purchase items from well known sellers.

AARP Finding Solutions To Live Longer In A Healthy Manner

A group of people giving thumbs up to the camera.


It’s important to increase longevity only if we can find ways to do so in excellent health.  When the United Nations declared the years 2021 to 2030 the “Decade of Healthy Aging,†it noted that there is a growing gap between how long someone will live and how many healthy years of life he or she can expect. AARP recently convened an international panel of experts for its Global Conference on Redefining Health : New Approaches for How We Live And Age.â€Â  The focus is on ensuring access to health care services for all older adults, strengthening the availability of long-term care, supporting aging in place and caring for older people in crisis conditions.  They have made significant progress.  Just one example is the U.S. hospital-at-home program which works to reduce strain on the health care system by offering us quality care in our own homes.  This has been particularly important during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has many hospitals overloaded.  The program has been so successful in the U.S. that its’ been expanded into Asia, Australia and Europe.

New Elder Abuse Scam : Investing In Silver Or Gold


AARP Bulletin reports that an increasingly common elder abuse scam is creating fear in seniors about the economy and the future of the stock market, and convincing them to buy a “100% safe†investment in precious metals.  The sellers then sneak in hefty fees and then mark up the coins as much as 300%, with the sales pitch being that they are “collectible†and thus worth more.  “These scams prey on the concerns that senior citizens may have relating to the economy, their retirement and their financial well-being,†according to AARP Bulletin.

New Rules For IRA Required Minimum Distributions

A jar of coins with the word retirement written on it.


With the exception of the COVID-19 blip over the last two years, people are living longer and the IRS has changed the rules on Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) on IRA’s, 401(k)’s and 403(b)’s.  RMDs were suspended for 2020 because of COVID, but they are back.  You don’t have to take RMDs from Roth IRAs, but you do from non-Roth’s.  The 2019 Secure Act raised to 72 the age at which RMD’s kick in, up from 70.5 years, but not for people who were already taking RMDs in 2019.  Starting in 2022, many people will have RMD’s that are about 6-7% smaller than they would have been under the IRS’s old life expectancy tables.  Speak to your tax accountant because the rules have become very complex (See AARP Bulletin, December 2021, page 30).
