Call on Congress to Pass the Alzheimer's Beneficiary and Caregiver Support Act!
Anyone who has seen a loved one suffer from Alzheimer's or dementia knows all too well how devastating the diseases can be. Worse still, caring for someone facing Alzheimer's too often creates an extreme financial burden, on top of the health and emotional struggles they already face.
That's why we need Congress to pass the bipartisan Alzheimer's Beneficiary and Caregiver Support Act. (S 3137/ H.R. 5681)
The Act would help improve quality of life for people living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, support family care partners, and reduce costs to federal and state health programs. That would help Alzheimer's patients stay in their own home longer. Not only does that help keep the patient where they would prefer to be, it also greatly decreases the cost for the patient's family.
The Act also strengthens the ability of family care partners to improve quality of life for people facing dementia today, and increases ability of people living with dementia and their families to access tailored, effective, person-centered services and training where and when it matters most.
People struggling with Alzheimer's and their caregivers need our help now more than ever. Take action today and call on your Representatives to pass the Alzheimer's Beneficiary and Caregiver Support Act!
