Individuals and institutions that still wish to receive paper copies of JAGS can subscribe via a separate service offered by our publishing partner. AGS Annual Scientific MeetingThe 2024 AGS Annual Scientific Meeting was offered virtually. This is the first fully virtual year in a four-year pilot of alternating virtual only and in-person/virtual meetings. At the end of the pilot (May 2026), we will have offered virtual-only meetings in 2024 and 2026 and hybrid meetings in 2023 and 2025. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b | Management reviewed the draft Form 990 with the Audit Committee and provided edits to the tax preparer. After this process was performed, the Form 990 was sent to the full Board of Directors prior to being filed with the IRS. |

| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15a | The Compensation Committee, which is comprised of the members of the Executive Committee, reviews the performance of the CEO annually and considers compensation data from other similar organizations when deciding whether to increase the base salary of this position.

The Compensation Committee presents its recommendations vis a vis salary and bonus to the full Board of Directors which votes on the recommendation. Decisions and feedback are documented in the CEO file. |

| 990, Part III, Line 4a - Grants and Special Projects | The special projects that AGS undertakes support the AGS mission of improving health, independence, and quality of life for all of us as we age. In 2024, the AGS met the goals and objectives for the following special projects: AGS Older Adult Vaccine Initiative, a part of the Specialty Societies Advancing Adult Immunization Initiative (funded by the Council of Medical Specialty Societies under a cooperative agreement with the Centers for Disease Control) The Geriatrics Workforce Enhancement Program Coordinating Center (funded by a grant from the John A. Hartford Foundation) AGS/AGING Learning Collaborative (funded by the National Institute on Aging) Frailty Bench-to-Bedside Conference Series (funded by a grant from the National Institute on Aging Advancing the Science of Multiple Chronic Conditions Conference Series (funded by a grant from the National Institute on Aging Clin-STAR Coordinating Center Administrative Supplement to support GEMSSTAR Scholars (funded by the American Federation for Aging Research under its Clin-STAR coordinating Center) Dissemination of the UCLA Alzheimer's and Dementia Care Program (funded by a grant from the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) under a grant from the John A. Hartford Foundation) Geriatrics Emergency Department Collaborative (funded by grants from Yale and New York University under a grant from the John A. Hartford Foundation)These externally-funded initiatives have enhanced our capacity to support the pipeline of geriatrics clinician educators and aging researchers, improve the capacity of the primary care workforce to implement care that is aligned with the 4Ms of age-friendly care, supported efforts to improve vaccination rates in older adults for the vaccinations that are recommended by the Centers for Disease Control, and to support gatherings of experts in aging research to explore current knowledge and identify gaps in our knowledge that warrant further research on the diseases and disorders of aging. |
| 990, Part III, line 4b- Member Services, Annual Meeting, Publications, | Other Program Expenses reflect the total of functional expenses for Member Services, the Annual Meeting, Publications, and Geriatrics Co-Management. In 2024, this portfolio of programs included a broad array of activities in service of advancing our AGS mission and realizing our vision for the future. For members, we offer a range of programs including a 24/7 mentoring program, a life skills and leadership program, and an online community. Our major publication, the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society (JAGS) is the premier journal for geriatrics clinicians. We have also partnered with other publishers to bring Geriatric Nursing and Journal of Gerontological Nursing to our nursing members. Our Geriatrics Co-Management suite of programs includes two programs that are geared specifically to acute care of older adults AGS CoCare: HELP which is focused on delirium prevention, and AGS CoCare: Ortho which is focused on improving care of older adults with fractures. |
| 990, Part III, Line 4c - Public Affairs, Outreach, and Education | The AGS has a robust portfolio of activities that includes providing expert input into regulatory proposals put forward by the administration; educating elected officials about how federal, state, and local policies can support all of us to age with health, dignity, and quality of life; and sharing the expertise of geriatrics health professionals with members of the public. Significant accomplishments in 2024 include an updated Questions for Elected Officials that provided voters with an important overview of important policies; working across our strategic priorities to educate our members and the public about federal programs that are supporting the pipeline of geriatrics educators and aging researchers; and collaborating with other organizations on advancing high-quality clinical care for all of us that is supported by the 4Ms of age-friendly care. |
| 990, Part III, Line 4d - Geriatrics Training Materials | The AGS believes that ensuring that all health professionals have the skills and knowledge to care for older adults is critical to ensuring high-quality, person-centered health care for all of us as we age. To that end, we maintain a robust portfolio of educational products and programs at geriatricscareonline.org that are designed to meet the needs of learners at all levels. We also support development of the next generation of leaders through the programs we offer and seek to provide geriatrics faculty with the tools that they need to teach about geriatrics principles to all learners. Among our significant accomplishments in 2024 is publication of the 26th edition of Geriatrics at Your Fingertips, and indispensable resource for clinicians at the bedside. Another is our review of the World Falls Guideline and subsequent publication of an article advising U.S.-based clinicians how they could implement the recommendations of that guideline into clinical practice. |
