A better way to grow old: the PACE model.
The Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), is a three-way partnership among providers, state government, and the federal government. Most participants are able to live at home while receiving a wide array of services at day care centers. Because the focus is on preventive care, hospitalizations and ED visits have been cut dramatically.
