Objective

To forecast the costs and benefits of implementing an early Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) detection and management program called PREVENT in a primary care practice over the period 2010-2050.

PREVENT

• PREVENT is a collaborative care model which have been successfully resulted in significant improvement in the quality of care and life of dementia patients and their caregivers within a primary care environment.

• PREVENT resulted in reduction of NPI score by 5.6 points.

• In addition to both direct costs (e.g., physician visits, medications, hospital care, paid home care, and nursing home services) and indirect costs (unpaid care giving), PREVENT will cost an additional $1,000 per patient.

In Conclusion

At varying rates of effectiveness and in constant dollars, implementing an early detection and management program (PREVENT) for AD in primary care is cost effective for the American Society. This model estimates that direct annual savings are 4 billion dollars in 2010, 22 billion dollars in 2025, and 29 billion dollars in 2050.

In Conclusion

The main key results of this study are:• Early diagnosis and treatment of

Alzheimer’s may result in cost savings.• Reducing behavioral and psychological

issues are the primary reasons for cost savings.

• There are many opportunities for managed care organizations to improve care of patients with Alzheimer’s disease.

Direct Cost per capita = ∑ni=1Pi xQi

Where P = unit cost, Q = resource utilization, and i =1–n (where n = number of cost items)

Methodology• First, the direct costs of AD over the period 2010-

2050 were estimated using a gross costing method in which we will total utilization of important types of care and then multiply this utilization by a unit cost for each type of care.

• Second, the cost of identifying an AD patient is estimated using the results of a screening and diagnostic regime reported by Boustani et al. The predictions of the benefits of early intervention and the predicted costs of the diagnostic programs permit an estimate of the overall net benefits and financial savings that would result from the implementation of an early stage diagnostic and treatment program.

• Third, projections of potential net benefits over the period 2010-2050 are estimated.
