Family caregivers are at the center of nearly every healthcare journey, yet their voices are too often missing from the policies that shape healthcare access, affordability, and innovation. Join the National Alliance for Caregiving as we launch our new Healthcare Access, Affordability & Innovation Policy Agenda and kick off a series of educational opportunities exploring how healthcare policy can better support family caregivers as essential partners in care and as current and future patients.

Our first session, hosted in partnership with the Alzheimer’s Impact Movement (AIM), will focus on the Alzheimer’s Screening and Prevention (ASAP) Act, bipartisan legislation that would expand Medicare coverage for FDA-authorized early detection screening tests for Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, including blood-based biomarker tests. Learn why earlier detection matters, not only for individuals living with dementia, but also for family caregivers, who benefit from more time to understand a diagnosis, participate in care decisions, plan for future needs, and connect with resources and supports.

Speakers:

Rachel Conant, Executive Director, Alzheimer’s Impact Movement
Jason Resendez, President and CEO, National Alliance for Caregiving
