For-Profit Demonstration Project for the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE)

This notice resolicits proposals for the private, for-profit demonstration project for the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE)and announces a closing date for the solicitation. CMS publishes this notice to— • Encourage for-profit entities to submit proposals to conduct projects to demonstrate the for-profit PACE concept over a 3 year period, and to further encourage that they do so within the next year by establishing a closing date to the solicitation; and • Increase the number of covered enrollees across all for-profit demonstration sites. If after this limited 1-year opportunity the report with the required findings cannot be completed, for-profit PACE demonstrations should plan to terminate their projects. CMS notes that, as a resolicitation, all proposals received will be evaluated using the criteria specified in the original August 10, 2001 Federal Register notice (66 FR 42231)and these criteria are also available on the CMS Web site at: http://www.cms.hhs.gov/DemoProjectsEvalRpts/MD/itemdetail.asp?itemID=CMS1202809 Read More
