PACE is a managed medical plan that helps seniors meet their health care needs in their home and in the community instead of in a nursing home or other elder care facility. PACE stands for Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly and it truly is all-inclusive. PACE, you have a team of medical experts and health care professionals working directly with you and your family to ensure you get the most effective plan of care.
