Starting Where You Are

To meet the needs of organizations at different points in developing community-based care for seniors, PACEpartners provides consulting services from "traditional" technical assistance to turn-key options.

PACEpartners' technical assistance follows the three key stages of PACE development:

• Prospective PACE - help in understanding the model and objectively assessing the strategic and financial feasibility of developing PACE at your organization -- crucial steps before deciding to go forward with the PACE Provider Application.
• Pursuing PACE - assistance in preparing the PACE Provider Application, developing the facility, systems and services, obtaining key licenses and launching enrollment.
• Operational PACE - help with special projects for fully developed and mature programs, such as the Medicare Part D PDE data set.

The turn-key options offer client ease and allow for developing a PACE organization more quickly. Using the turn-key approach, On Lok draws upon more than three decades of exceptional management experience to develop and administer the client's operations. We offer two "turn-key" models.

• Assigning On Lok management staff to an organization (either pursuing PACE or operating PACE) for a time-limited period.
• Staffing, developing, managing and operating PACE for a limited start-up period and then transferring the program's management back to the organization.
