CalOptima PACE
Description
The PACE program run by CalOptima, Orange County’s own Medi-Cal plan: one center and one care team for your clinic visits, day center, medicines, rides, rehab, and home help.
Why this place helps: It is run by the county’s own health plan and covers every Orange County ZIP code, so no senior is turned away for living in the wrong part of the county.
Who it is for: Age 55 or older living anywhere in Orange County. There are no ZIP-code limits inside the county. It serves seniors who have Medi-Cal only, or Medicare and Medi-Cal together, who need a nursing-home level of care but can live safely at home.
Both-cards note: If you hold both Medicare and Medi-Cal, CalOptima PACE is built exactly for that pair, and Medi-Cal can cover costs Medicare leaves behind.
