The COVID-19 policies targeting older people in Chile aim to address short- and long-term challenges, but may have unintended negative consequences on mental and physical health, as well as financial aspects for this group. A broader perspective that considers financial scarcity, access to health services, mental health issues, and long-term care is needed in policy responses to better protect older people in Chile.
Objective: Provide a synthesis of the COVID-19 policies targeting older people in Chile, stressing their short- and long-term challenges. Method: Critical analysis of the current legal and policy measures, based on national-level data and international experiences. Results: Although several policies have been enacted to protect older people from COVID-19, these measures could have important unintended negative consequences in this group's mental and physical health, as well as financial aspects. Discussion: A wider perspective is needed to include a broader definition of health-considering financial scarcity, access to health services, mental health issues, and long-term care-in the policy responses to COVID-19 targeted to older people in Chile.
