How it Works

As a St. Paul’s PACE participant, you will receive tailored medical care from a team of the finest professionals who specialize in aging and chronic conditions. Our medical team of doctors, nurse practitioners, and registered nurses work with therapists, dietitians, social workers, and home care nurses to create a customized plan that is right for you! It is our goal to ensure you have optimal health, safety, and overall well-being. With the help of St. Paul’s PACE, you can live independently in your home and out of skilled nursing or assisted living facilities as long as possible.

All of your health care - including specialized services - is provided by St. Paul’s PACE or a contracted provider authorized by St. Paul’s PACE.

A Team of Healthcare Professionals

With St. Paul’s PACE, you have a team of healthcare professionals working with both you and your family to ensure you get the coordinated care that you need. Your team gets to know you as an individual and helps you with your overall well-being, not just medical care. In addition to your primary care physician, we have many specialists who can provide you with expert medical attention in a variety of fields, including:

Audiologist: Hearing specialist
Dentist: Care of your teeth
Optometrist: Vision specialist
Podiatrist: Care for your feet
Psychologist: Support for mental health

If you need to see a specialist, all appointments are handled through your PACE primary care physician and approved by your care team. Our goal is to ensure that you get the best medical treatment and that all necessary parties are involved so that the best-informed decisions can be made.

St. Paul’s PACE even offers telehealth, virtual appointments, and a Roving Clinic that comes to your home to help minimize exposure for participants who are at-risk or immunocompromised. In addition, we provide emergency support 24/7. If you have a medical emergency after regular business hours, a St. Paul’s nurse is available to assist you.

Let Us Help You

One of the biggest challenges seniors face when it comes to accessing proper health care is not having a knowledgeable advocate by their side to help them navigate the complex health journey. With St. Paul’s PACE, we are your built-in advocates. Your interdisciplinary team of physicians, dietitians, social workers, therapists, and nurses meet together to discuss your care plan.

With a program like St. Paul’s PACE, you will have all the help you need in one place. And the best part? All of these services are provided at no cost* to you if you have Medi-Cal or a combination of Medi-Cal and Medi-care. Even if you do not currently have Medi-Cal, one of our Enrollment Specialists can help determine if you might be eligible. Call us today to learn more about how St. Paul’s PACE can change your life.

*Those with a Medi-Cal share of cost remain responsible for payment.
