AI Summary

This bill amends the New York elder law to require an annual report that comprehensively examines primary caregivers of older adults. The report must include specific details such as the total number of primary caregivers, their average age, the personal financial cost of providing care to an older adult, and an analysis of the economic value and potential state savings generated by these caregivers' services.
