The Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience (GUIDE) Model was announced by CMS in 2023 to test alternative ways for Medicare to pay for comprehensive dementia care that includes support for family caregivers. In July 2024, CMS announced the 390 organizations participating in the model. The model began on July 1, 2024, and will run for eight years.
This LTQA member-only discussion provided an overview and background of the GUIDE model and its components, present six evidence-based models for implementing comprehensive dementia care and explore how managed care plans might provide GUIDE-like benefits to their members with dementia.
