Bill 118 hr 7218, also known as the BOLD Infrastructure for Alzheimer's Reauthorization Act of 2024, is a piece of legislation that aims to continue and expand upon the efforts of the original BOLD Infrastructure for Alzheimer's Act. The bill seeks to improve the nation's response to Alzheimer's disease by enhancing public health infrastructure, increasing data collection and analysis, and promoting early detection and diagnosis. Specifically, the BOLD Infrastructure for Alzheimer's Reauthorization Act of 2024 includes provisions to strengthen the Alzheimer's Disease and Healthy Aging Program within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This program would receive increased funding to support state and local public health departments in their efforts to address Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. Additionally, the bill calls for the establishment of a National Alzheimer's Project Act (NAPA) Advisory Council to provide guidance and recommendations on Alzheimer's research, care, and services. This council would be tasked with developing and updating a national plan to address Alzheimer's disease, with a focus on improving early detection and diagnosis, supporting caregivers, and advancing research efforts. Overall, the BOLD Infrastructure for Alzheimer's Reauthorization Act of 2024 aims to build upon the progress made in the fight against Alzheimer's disease and ensure that the necessary resources and support are in place to address this growing public health crisis.
