To create a new Medicare reimbursement code for doctors in order to encourage a gold standard for comprehensive Alzheimer's diagnoses. The bill would increase early Alzheimer's diagnoses and allow doctors to have a conversation with patients and caregivers after a new diagnosis to explain treatments and available services. This conversation between caregivers and doctors is critical to help patients avoid complications and hospitalizations.
