  • Grant Results Report

The National PACE Association, along with the National Rural Health Association, convened the Rural PACE Summit on September 18–20, 2002, in Roanoke, Va. PACE (Programs of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly) is a service delivery model that integrates medical and social services.

Key Results

  • The 40 invited PACE participants — providers, rural health experts and state and federal policy-makers — identified barriers to PACE development in rural areas and developed an action plan, Setting the PACE for Rural Elder Care: A Framework for Action, with recommendations for expanding the availability of PACE programs in these communities. It is available from the National Rural Health Association Web site.
  • The National PACE Association also developed Setting the PACE for Rural Elder Care: Three Rural PACE Case Studies. See the Bibliography.

Funding
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) provided $44,415 to partly fund the summit.
