This is perhaps not surprising, especially given that most of an average individual’s healthcare costs are incurred in their final years. The problem is demographic: the number of people aged 85-plus, currently about 1.3 million, is set to almost triple by 2035. Sign up for our quarterly newsletter. Tweets by @inter gen.
