Abstract:
Older adults with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience challenges across multiple aspects of health care, and health care delivery must evolve to meet the geriatric needs of the aging MS population. Although the literature on multidisciplinary care or access to care for older adults with MS is sparse, the geriatric care literature for the general population highlights the importance of comprehensive geriatric assessment and the barriers to health care. This review, based on a 2024 Consortium of MS Centers' Consensus Statement committee meeting, discusses multidisciplinary care and key barriers to care for older adults with MS and integrates insights from the broader geriatric care literature. Clinical and policy-level recommendations are shared to enhance provider knowledge, improve care delivery, and support better outcomes for older adults living with MS.
