The Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly program, also known as PACE, is a newer model of managed care service delivery for very frail seniors who are approved by the state to need nursing facility care to live as independently as possible. The core services provided under PACE include the provision of adult day health care services and care management from an interdisciplinary care team which authorizes the access to all health services.  The PACE organization must provide all needed services to the PACE participant.
