PROGRAMS OF ALL-INCLUSIVE CARE FOR THE ELDERLY (PACE)
The Elder Service Plans within the Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) provide medical and social services for frail elders 55 years and older. MassHealth and Medicare cover the services that are provided by a team of health professionals so that elders can stay in their homes and communities instead of having to go to a nursing home. This program is meant to provide quality, individualized, and streamlined care for elders in a more cost-effective manner than the typical fee-for-service structure provides.
