OSF PACE

The care you need – in the home you love

About

Getting older doesn’t mean you have to give up your freedom. If you need health care support but want to live in your own home, there’s a choice for you.

OSF PACE stands for Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly. It’s for people who need help with their health and wellness in order to stay independent. OSF PACE gives you your own personal team who can help with your daily needs.

As a participant, we assist you with things like managing medications, preparing meals, bathing and more. Plus, this added support helps lighten the load for caregivers and loved ones.

OSF PACE also gives you opportunities to spend time with other people.

Frequently Asked Questions

Whether you're an active participant or exploring if OSF PACE is right for you or a loved one, below are answers to some of the most common questions we receive.

What is the cost?

OSF PACE services are paid for by Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance or by a monthly premium paid by the participant. See the OSF PACE Enrollment Agreement for more details.

Will I still have Medicare or Medicaid coverage?

When you enroll in PACE, you will no longer be enrolled in other Medicare and Medicaid programs. However, you won’t lose any coverage you currently enjoy. Instead, you would keep your current benefits while also gaining the benefits provided by OSF PACE.

If you decide to join a Medicare plan after enrolling in OSF PACE, this would result in your voluntary disenrollment from OSF PACE. More details can be found in the Enrollment Agreement.

Can I continue to see my preferred doctors?

You must select providers from the OSF PACE network. However, there are exceptions in rare cases. OSF PACE has contracted with certain medical providers (doctors, hospitals, etc.) to deliver covered services, so it’s important for participants to know which providers are in the OSF PACE network.

Where can I find information about things like filing a grievance or appeal, appointing a representative to make decisions on my behalf or disenrolling from the OSF PACE program?

These and other details can be found in the Enrollment Agreement.
