Dear John,

Thank you for your support in the
fight to end Alzheimer's disease. Advocacy is one of our most powerful
tools to fight for the needs and rights of those impacted by this
devastating disease and support those living with Alzheimer's. And
today, I urge you to make your voice heard in support of the more than
5 million people living with Alzheimer's in the United States.

Did you know that people who receive
dementia-specific care planning, such as learning about medical and
non-medical treatments, see a positive impact? Such planning results
in:

* Fewer stays in a hospital.
* Fewer unexpected, stressful and costly emergency room visits.
* Better medication management.

Unfortunately, too many clinicians and
patients are not aware of this benefit or of the tools and resources
available. That's why the Alzheimer's Association worked with
bipartisan Congressional champions on the Improving HOPE for
Alzheimer's Act (S. 880/H.R. 1873). The bill will increase education
and outreach to clinicians and caregivers about Alzheimer's and
dementia care planning services available through Medicare.

As a member of our community, will you
raise your voice in support of this critical legislation by signing
our petition today?

Act Now

When Alzheimer's disease unexpectedly
enters your life, you are faced with enough uphill battles to
overcome. We can't allow the health care system to fail those living
with dementia.

Specifically, this bill will educate
clinicians on available care planning services and care planning
billing codes, and report on the barriers to individuals receiving
these services. This is something we can all agree will make a
positive difference. But Congress needs to hear from you to ensure it
passes.

Please add your voice to ours. Speak
out today.
