Return to Office of Medicare Innovation and Integration
The Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) is committed to improving detection, care, caregiver support, and data analysis for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Most individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias have Medicare and/or Medi-Cal coverage.
The Department’s efforts are part of the Governor’s Master Plan for Aging and the recommendations from the Governor’s Task Force on Alzheimer’s Disease Prevention and Preparedness.

Medi-Cal 年度认知健康评估
California Senate Bill (SB) 48 (Chapter 484, Statutes of 2021) expands the Medi-Cal schedule of benefits to include an annual cognitive health assessment for Medi-Cal Members who are 65 years of age and older if they are otherwise ineligible for a similar assessment as part of an annual wellness visit through the Medicare Program. The annual cognitive health assessment should identify signs of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, consistent with the standards for detecting cognitive impairment under the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the recommendations by the American Academy of Neurology (AAN). To receive payment for this assessment, Medi-Cal Providers must complete training through Dementia Care Aware, and use validated tools recommended by DHCS.
