What happens to my Medicare/Medicaid coverage when I join?

Participants with Medicare and/or Medicaid do not lose their coverage, but authorize Ascension Living St. Vincent PACE benefit administration. This means you maintain Medicare and/or Medicaid benefits, gaining additional Ascension Living St. Vincent PACE benefits. All services are provided under one umbrella so you do not have to worry about "falling through the cracks" with hidden costs or deductions.   

If eligible, participants agree to receive all needed health care services from Ascension Living St. Vincent PACE or our contracted provider. Cost for unauthorized or out-of-network services may be the responsibility of the participant. Other than emergency services, all services must be approved by the Ascension Living St. Vincent PACE Team.

What is the cost?

What you pay for St. Vincent PACE depends on your eligibility for Medicare and/or Medicaid. Participants enrolled in both Medicare and Medicaid, or just Medicaid alone, have little or no cost for any care or services within their care plan. Participants enrolled in both Medicare and Medicaid, or just Medicaid alone, have no copayments or deductibles for anything within their care plan. We can assist with new Medicaid applications. With Medicare alone, there is a cost-sharing option.
