On July 1, 2024, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Innovation Center’s Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience (GUIDE) Model officially launched. GUIDE provides an alternative payment model for Medicare fee-for-service providers to deliver comprehensive, person-centered dementia care.
Since the initial launch, two sets of model participants have gone live nationwide, offering care navigation, 24/7 support, and caregiver training, education, and respite services for individuals living with dementia and their caregivers.
Now one full year into implementation, join Manatt Health, alongside a select group of GUIDE Model participants and CMS, for an interactive panel discussion on:
- The purpose and value proposition of the GUIDE Model to dementia care
- Implementation successes and lessons learned to date for participating providers and Medicare beneficiaries
- Opportunities to advance the model’s impact in the health- and long-term care systems
- Additional policy and practice levers to strengthen care for individuals living with dementia and their families amid the evolving political landscape
Participants
- Edo Banach, Partner, Manatt Health
- Kendall Hussey, Senior Advisor, Manatt Health
- Mac McDermott, Consultant, Manatt Health
- Tonya Saffer, Division Director, Healthcare Payment Models, CMS Innovation Center
