What Medicare’s New GUIDE Program Means for Dementia Care and Family Caregivers
In this episode of At The Heart of Caregiving, we break down the new CMS GUIDE model—Medicare’s nationwide dementia care initiative launching in July 2025. Designed to support both individuals living with dementia and their unpaid caregivers, this program offers coordinated care, caregiver education, and up to $2,500 a year in funded respite services—all with no cost sharing for eligible families. We explain who qualifies, how it works, and how Caring Senior Service is making it easy for families to access these benefits through a no-cost dementia care program. Whether you're a caregiver or a referral partner, this is one worth tuning into.
