CaliforniaCalifornia would track frontotemporal degeneration if money is available
California’s health department would count frontotemporal degeneration cases, could include other dementias, and would keep the tracking program through 2031 if funded.
What it does
When money is available, California’s health department would add frontotemporal degeneration to its disease counting system. Providers would report cases under the program’s rules.
Other dementias could enter the state’s disease tracking program if the health department selects them for reporting. The program needs funding to operate.
The disease tracking and reporting rules would remain in place until January 1, 2032, four years longer than before. The program would still need funding to run.
Argument forIf funded, counting frontotemporal degeneration cases could give California clearer numbers to help plan care for people with the disease.
Argument againstIf funded, tracking frontotemporal degeneration could add reporting work for providers and bring more patients’ medical information into the state system.
More detail
California’s health department would add frontotemporal degeneration to its system for counting disease cases. This covers cases diagnosed or treated in California and the providers who report them. The program operates only when money is available.
California would name other dementias as diseases the program may cover. This possible coverage concerns dementias other than Alzheimer’s disease in California. The health department must select a disease for required reporting. The program operates only when money is available.
California would extend the program’s legal end date. This covers the state’s disease tracking and case reporting rules. The program may operate only when money is available. The rules would be repealed on January 1, 2032, instead of January 1, 2028.
