This session will be useful to providers who are engaged in care during transitions from the hospital and to policymakers designing the Dementia Care Management System. Learning Objectives: (1) review the applicability of Transitional Care Management codes in older patients in transitions from hospital or skilled nursing care to home; (2) describe the requirements of the Cognitive Assessment and Care Planning code; (3) leverage the strengths and weaknesses of past transitional care programs during their design process; and (4) recognize the authorities and vehicles that shape the future of care for people living with dementia and their caregivers.
