We're celebrating a win for Arkansas families today. Sen. John Boozman has signed on as a cosponsor of the Alzheimer's Screening and Prevention (ASAP) Act, joining a growing group of bipartisan champions in Congress.

Under current law, Medicare can't cover dementia screening tests for people without symptoms. The ASAP Act would remove that barrier, giving families more time to plan, seek treatment and access support when it matters most.

Thank you, Sen. Boozman, for your leadership on this issue.

Advocate Amy Leigh Overton-McCoy from Arkansas's 4th Congressional District thanks Congressman Bruce Westerman for meeting with her about the bipartisan Alzheimer's Screening and Prevention (ASAP) Act, which would allow Medicare to cover routine Alzheimer's blood tests. We hope he'll cosponsor this important legislation.
