Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
The PACE Access Improvement Act streamlines and expands the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly by removing barriers to provider growth and participation. The bill eliminates numerical caps on the number of PACE providers allowed under Medicare and Medicaid, allows qualified providers to submit expansion applications at any time rather than during designated periods, and permits successful providers to add new centers through a streamlined notice process instead of full applications, with automatic approval after 45 days unless the government objects. The legislation also standardizes operating requirements across all provider types—nonprofit, private, and for-profit—to ensure equal treatment. These changes take effect immediately upon enactment and are designed to increase seniors' access to PACE services, which provide comprehensive care coordination for elderly individuals.
