| Annotation | The authors write in response to guidance produced for commissioners on how to assess and deliver memory services in the UK (Models of dementia assessment and diagnosis: indicative cost review; NHS England, 2015). They provide a short but critical assessment of the guidance, which compared three types of service delivery and their costs. They review other guidance on the subject: from NICE, CG42 (2006), an earlier version of the NHS England 2016 document, and recent items on criteria that identify mild cognitive impairment (MCI). (RH). |
