Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE)

Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) serves individuals 55 and older with income equal to or less than 300% of SSI Medicaid coverage who need intermediate or skilled care, providing comprehensive medical and social services.

Eligibility

  • Care recipient age: at least 55

Questions to ask the program

These are questions to ask the program, not a verdict on your eligibility. Confirm the current rules directly with the program.

  • Does the person receiving care live in Oklahoma? — Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.
  • Is the person receiving care in the covered age range (55 or older)?
  • Is there a caregiver-specific department, coordinator, or support line? Ask for it by name. — Many agencies have one that isn’t advertised on the website.
  • What documents do you need from us to start an application?
  • Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?

How to apply

  • There is no single online PACE application; potential participants contact one of Oklahoma's four PACE organizations (Valir PACE-OKC, Valir PACE-Shawnee, Cherokee Elder Care PACE in Tahlequah, or LIFE PACE in Tulsa, chosen by service-area zip code) or the OHCA PACE Unit (PACEInquiry@okhca.org, 405-522-7044) for information; the PACE organization then helps the senior apply for Medicaid and gather the required financial/asset and income verification documents.
