This memorial requests that the New Mexico Department of Health and the Aging and Long-Term Services Department collaborate with the New Mexico chapter of the Alzheimer's Association and other relevant entities to update and integrate the best available evidence-based research on brain health into their public health education and outreach programs. The aim is to enhance awareness and understanding of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, including their warning signs, risk factors, and the importance of early detection. Additionally, the departments are encouraged to seek federal funding and resources, particularly from the Federal Administration on Aging's Alzheimer's Disease Programs Initiative, to support these efforts.

Furthermore, the memorial emphasizes the need for health care providers to be educated on the validated assessment tools for detecting cognitive impairment and the associated Medicare billing codes. It highlights the significant role that health care providers can play in improving care for individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias. The memorial also calls for a report on the outcomes of these integration efforts to be produced and submitted to the New Mexico legislative council and the governor, ensuring accountability and transparency in the implementation of these initiatives.
