CMS Innovation Center Launches Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience Model, Announces Participants

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is pleased to announce the launch of the Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience (GUIDE) Model [ https://www.cms.gov/priorities/innovation/innovation-models/guide ], with almost 400 participating organizations building Dementia Care Programs (DCPs) serving hundreds of thousands of Medicare beneficiaries nationwide.

DCPs represent a wide range of health care providers, including large academic medical centers, small group practices, community-based organizations, health systems, hospice agencies, telehealth organizations, and other practices.

The GUIDE Model aims to improve the quality of life for people living with dementia, reduce strain on unpaid caregivers, and help people remain in their homes and communities through a package of care coordination and management, caregiver education and support, and respite services. The GUIDE Model will be tested by the CMS Innovation Center. It is a key deliverable from President Biden’s April 2023 Executive Order on Increasing Access to High-Quality Care and Supporting Caregivers [ https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2023/04/18/executive-order-on-increasing-access-to-high-quality-care-and-supporting-caregivers/ ], and it addresses key goals of the National Plan (National Plan) to Address Alzheimer’s Disease [ https://aspe.hhs.gov/collaborations-committees-advisory-groups/napa/napa-documents/napa-national-plan#:~:text=National%20Plan%20establishes%20six%20ambitious,Treat%20AD%2FADRD%20by%202025 ].

Through the GUIDE Model, CMS will test an alternative payment for participants who deliver key support services to people with dementia, including comprehensive, person-centered assessments and care plans, care coordination, and 24/7 access to a support line. Under the model, people with dementia and their caregivers will have access to a care navigator who will help them access services and supports, including clinical services and non-clinical services such as meals and transportation through community-based organizations.
