WASHINGTON, D.C. — March 9, 2026 — Argentum, the leading national association representing senior living communities, announced today that it has extended the deadline for organizations to submit data for the 2026 Largest Providers Report to March 20, 2026, giving more senior living providers the opportunity to participate in one of the industry’s most widely referenced reports.
The Largest Providers Report offers one of the most comprehensive snapshots of the senior living landscape, providing insight into the organizations operating assisted living, independent living, and memory care communities across the United States. The report is widely used by industry leaders, investors, developers, policymakers, and media to better understand the scale and structure of senior living.
“Accurate industry data is essential for telling the story of senior living,” said James Balda, President and CEO of Argentum. “The Largest Providers Report helps illustrate the breadth of organizations serving older adults across the country and provides valuable context for industry leaders, capital partners, and others working to expand access to senior living. By extending the deadline, we hope to ensure even broader participation and an even more comprehensive snapshot of the industry.”
Last year’s report featured more than 150 providers operating over 651,000 units nationwide, offering a detailed look at the largest senior living operators as well as trends across assisted living, independent living, and memory care.
Participation in the survey is free and open to all senior living providers, regardless of Argentum membership. The survey collects operational data as of December 31, 2025, and the final report will be released publicly later this summer.
For participating organizations, inclusion in the report provides valuable visibility and benchmarking opportunities. The report serves as a trusted resource for understanding industry growth, market positioning, and evolving operational trends.
“The strength of the report depends on participation from providers across the industry,” Balda added. “Each organization that contributes helps create a more accurate and representative picture of senior living and the essential role it plays in supporting older adults and their families.”
Senior living providers are encouraged to submit their data before the extended deadline of March 20, 2026.
