Description
Radmila Choate and co-authors pilot a survey of money strain in older adults tied to an Alzheimer research center in Kentucky, in a study from 2025. Care for dementia drains funds through clinic fees, drugs, lost work, and kin care, a load the team calls financial toxicity in the text after its use in cancer care. A twelve item scale, reshaped for mixed levels of thought, scored strain from naught to forty four.
Replies came from 153 adults with a mean age near eighty, most with sound thought and long schooling. Mean scores sat in the low strain zone. Strain showed no link to age, sex, schooling, or thought state in this small, well off group. The authors urge larger, wider studies of cost coping and life grade.
