What you get
PACE is a Medicare and Medicaid program that provides comprehensive medical and social services to frail elderly individuals (55+) who are certified as needing nursing home-level care but prefer to remain living in the community. PACE organizations provide all covered Medicare and Medicaid services — including primary care, hospital, dental, vision, hearing, prescription drugs, physical therapy, and personal care — through an interdisciplinary team at an adult day health center. There are no coverage gaps or deductibles, and most PACE participants have no monthly premium if they qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid.
