CMS Data Shows 89,659 Enrollees in PACE Program as of 2023
The Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) served approximately 89,659 individuals in 2023, according to newly released demographic data. PACE provides fully integrated Medicare and Medicaid services to individuals age 55 or older who meet nursing facility level of care criteria but can live safely in the community. The report characterizes the demographic composition of PACE enrollees. PACE operates as an alternative to institutional long-term care, with states and CMS sharing financial responsibility for dual-eligible beneficiaries.
PACE enrollment data informs state decisions on capitated long-term care alternatives and helps managed care plans assess opportunities in dual-eligible integration programs.
