Neurocognitive Diseases with Psychosis TotalAssist Fund Launches:
Today, Patient Advocate Foundation opened a TotalAssist fund designed to help with out-of-pocket healthcare costs for eligible patients living with neurocognitive diseases with psychosis.
This TotalAssist fund provides a grant of up to $6,000 per year that can be used to help pay for eligible expenses including medication copays, coinsurance, and deductibles, health insurance premiums, office visit charges the day of treatment, and administration charges related to treatment.
According to the National Library of Medicine, a neurocognitive disorder is a general term that describes decreased mental function due to a medical disease. It is a chronic condition, with Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease being among the most common causes, but other conditions like frontotemporal degeneration, Huntington’s disease, Lewey body disease, traumatic brain injury, and many others can also contribute.
Psychoses are an unfortunate common byproduct of these disorders. According to a study published in the Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry and Neurology, up to 60% of late-life psychotic symptoms are due to systemic medical or neurological conditions, particularly neurodegenerative diseases.
