Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
The GUIDE Model
The GUIDE Model is designed to improve the quality of life for people living with dementia and those in their lives who give them support with routine tasks. The GUIDE Model pays for services like:
- Comprehensive Assessment & Care Plan
- Caregiver Education
- Respite
- Coordination of Services
- 24/7 Access
The Dementia Institute is collaborating with our colleagues in Reliance Community Care Partners to offer GUIDE services in the Greater Grand Rapids area of West Michigan.
If you or a loved one would like to consider aligning with the GUIDE Model, feel free to contact us to discuss eligibility like:
- Enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B, not Medicare Advantage, and
- Known or suspected dementia.
If you would like to align with the GUIDE Model, your Medicare benefits will NOT change. You remain eligible to receive the same Medicare benefits, and you still have the right to use any doctor, other health care professional, or hospital that accepts Medicare, at any time.
