The GUIDE Program offers comprehensive support designed to ease the burden of dementia caregiving and improve quality of life for both patients and their families. Here's everything it includes.
$2,625 annual respite care funding
Up to $2,625 per year to cover the cost of respite care, which can be used for in-home care or facility-based services.

Ongoing monitoring
Regular check-ins and proactive adjustments to the care plan as your loved one's needs evolve.
In-home assessment

Does GUIDE replace my other Medicare benefits?
No. The GUIDE Program works alongside your existing Medicare coverage. It doesn't replace your doctor, your current specialists, or any other Medicare benefits you're already receiving.
