Is this official mental health care? Dr. Wible personally screens each participant to ensure they’re in the best group for their unique needs. Our physician peer support groups meet every Sunday (except major holidays and during live retreats). No, we do not offer official medical or legal advice. Are these membership groups?

Don’t get me wrong, the evidence points to cost savings, but as Chris Callahan and Kathleen Unroe pointed out in a JAGS editorial in 2020 “in comprehensive dementia care models, savings may accrue to Medicare, but the expenses accrue to a fluid and unstable network of local service providers, patients, and their families.” Malaz: I love it.
