Bring examples
Specific examples are more useful than “my memory feels worse.”
Medicare visit guide
Memory questions before a Medicare Annual Wellness Visit.
A Medicare Annual Wellness Visit may include questions about memory and thinking. A baseline can help you prepare for a clearer conversation.
Not a diagnosis. This page is for screening education and visit preparation. Talk with a qualified healthcare professional about results and next steps.
How to prepare.
Ask what is being screened
Screening tools are starting points. Your doctor decides what follow-up makes sense.
Save a baseline
A dated report can help you and your doctor compare later if concerns continue.
Caregiver note.
If you help a parent or partner, support them without entering private health details on public forms. Sit with them while they schedule or prepare if they want that help.
Next step
Get a baseline before your appointment.
If you want a short published memory screen with a report you can bring to a visit, schedule the MCI Screen and review your results with your doctor.
