See a doctor
If you're noticing signs of cognitive change in yourself or another person, talk to a doctor. Early detection means greater access to treatment options and the ability to plan for the future.

Make your voice heard
A simple blood test can detect Alzheimer's before symptoms appear, but Medicare can't cover it without an act of Congress. Urge your member of Congress to support the bipartisan ASAP Act.
