Who can do cognitive testing for someone who has dementia? Must satisfy both long-term care insurer and possibly Social Security disability.

Already have primary care doctor's letter which works for health care POA and financial POA.

If disability is for wife, it cannot be gotten once 65. She can collect regular SS at 62 but get less than if she waited till age 67.

I would get the written opinion of two doctors and copies of any testing.
One MD should be neuro-psych eval.
