Most older Americans do not financially qualify for Medicaid and support provided through the Older Americans Act is quite limited. In response, Ohio has generated funds for services for older adults through the use of local county tax levy programs. Ohio currently leads the nation in the utilization and support of local levy funding, generating more than US$200 million annually. This study conducted qualitative descriptive interviews with 15 locally funded programs across the state. Thematic analysis revealed that local programs encounter an array of implementation barriers, including increased state and federal eligibility requirements, staffing issues, lack of access to services in rural locations, and low reimbursement rates. These barriers are coupled with added pressure from county officials to move individuals onto state-funded programs, rather than locally funded programs. This paper also provides recommendations for how these programs can be better supported to ensure their sustainability for the future.
