Not really. Alzheimer's is about 60% of dementia, and is frequently misdiagnosed without a full workup. As primary care shifts to more poorly trained providers and doc in the box delivery models, you'll get less workups and more misdiagnoses.

A more objective blood test will make for more accurate diagnoses and and better treatment.
