The Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience (GUIDE) Model is an 8-year voluntary nationwide model test that aims to support people with dementia and their unpaid caregivers. The GUIDE Model focuses on comprehensive, coordinated dementia care and aims to improve the quality of life for people with dementia, reduce strain on their unpaid caregivers, and enable people with dementia to remain in their homes and communities for as long as possible, rather than go into a nursing home. By providing no cost care coordination services to patients, we take the burden off of caregivers, providers, and their staff.

GUIDE IS NOT a Medicare Managed Care Program and does not replace the medical care of the individual.

Patient services include:
• Care coordination services needed to help manage the beneficiary’s dementia and co-occurring conditions.
• The interdisciplinary care team which will deliver services by creating and maintaining a person-centered care plan, which will include details on the beneficiary’s goals, strengths, and needs; comprehensive assessment results; and recommendations for service providers and community-based social services and supports.
• Care Navigator to help access resources such as home-delivered meals, transportation, home health aide services, primary care physicians and specialists if needed.

Caregiver services include:
• Ongoing monitoring and support via 24/7 access to a support line
