Nurse-managers will customize plans for policyholders in the Phoenix, Ariz., area starting Jan. 1 as a first step toward offering the Alzheimer's program nationwide, the company said Monday. The policies will be funded by Medicare. UnitedHealth, based in Minnetonka, said the program is aimed at improving services for the estimated 5 million Americans suffering from Alzheimer's. Nurses serving as case managers will help members stay out of hospitals, said John Mach, chief executive officer of UnitedHealth's Evercare unit.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.startribune.com/535/story/1429002.html"></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/C5C78280-50BB-48DA-AD92-939DD28B6BE7/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
