United States Cost of Dementia Model
United States Cost of Dementia
The United States Cost of Dementia project uses dynamic microsimulation modeling to produce nationally representative estimates of the cost of dementia in the U.S. each year. It provides the most comprehensive cost estimates to date and tracks changes over time. The project will build infrastructure to enable researchers and policymakers to identify strategies for reducing the population-level impacts of dementia.
