17     Recent Trends in Workers' Compensation
by Ishita Sengupta and Virginia Reno
Workers' compensation pays for medical care immediately after injury and pays cash ben-
efits for lost work time after a 3- to 7-day waiting period. As a source of support for disabled
workers, it is surpassed in size only by the Social Security Disability Insurance program. This
article traces the development of workers' compensation coverage, benefits, and employer
costs in 2004.

45     Expenditures of the Aged
by Kimberly Burham
This article includes a short overview of existing research and reprints some of the charts
available in the Expenditures of the Aged Chartbook. The goal of the chartbook is to improve
the availability of statistics on expenditures of the aged. Data are based on the 2002 Con-
sumer Expenditure Survey Public-Use File. Measures of standards of living, such as expen-
ditures, help inform policymakers and researchers who are concerned about the adequacy of
economic resources of the aged.
