Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE)

The Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) features a comprehensive and seamless service delivery system and integrated Medicare and Medicaid financing. Eligible individuals are age 55 years or older and meet the clinical criteria to be admitted to a nursing home but choose to remain in the community. An array of coordinated services is provided to support PACE participants to prevent the need for nursing home admission. An interdisciplinary team, consisting of professional and paraprofessional staff, assesses participants’ needs; develops care plans; and delivers or arranges for all services (including acute care and, when necessary, nursing facility services), either directly or through contracts. PACE programs provide social and medical services, primarily in an adult day health center setting referred to as the “PACE center,” and supplement this care with in-home and referral services in accordance with the participants’ needs. Each participant can receive all Medicare- and Medicaid-covered services, as well as other care determined necessary by the interdisciplinary team.
