RIC Webinar: Delivering Dementia Capable Care Within Health Plans: Why and How?

Resources for Integrated Care invites you to this June 19 event

June 3, 2019 Resources  for Integrated Care Webinar: Delivering Dementia Capable Care Within Health Plans: Why and How? Wednesday, June 19, 2019, 12:00 - 1:30 PM ET Register for the event Alzheimer's disease, the most common type of dementia, affects an estimated 5.8 million Americans. It is the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S. and a leading cause of disability and poor health for older adults. The emotional and physical burden of dementia on individuals, families, and caregivers is immense. Further, the cost of care is high for Medicare, Medicaid, and private payers. Individuals living with dementia have higher emergency department utilization and higher rates of 30-day readmission than those without dementia. Gaps in dementia care contribute to a reduced quality of life. Dementia capable care aims to close gaps in care through the coordination of individualized and integrated medical and psychosocial care. The dementia capable care model offers plans and providers an approach to address the complex and highly variable needs of individuals with dementia and their families. This webinar presents information on ongoing work and achieved outcomes for two states participating in the Financial Alignment Initiative. State agencies, health plans, and community organizations in California and Texas collaborate within the framework of this demonstration to improve care while controlling costs for enrollees with dementia, who account for 25% of their participating beneficiaries. Presenters will share strategies and tools for the delivery of dementia capable care, as well as tips for leveraging resources within federal, state, and local environments to build more responsive systems of care delivery. Featured Speakers Christopher M. Callahan, MD, MACP, Cornelius and Yvonne Pettinga Professor, Director, Indiana University Center for Aging Research Debra Cherry, Executive Vice President, Alzheimer's Los Angele Megan Dankmyer, Associate Vice President of Case Management, Molina Healthcare of California Katie Scott, MPH, Sr. Director of Dementia and Caregiver Support Services, BakerRipley.org Registration Registration is required to receive the webinar information.
