An Enrollment Nurse will also meet with you to learn more about your health history, current conditions and medications.

A Medicaid Specialist will meet with you to review your MassHealth status and will walk you through the required documents needed in order to submit your MassHealth application if needed.

Tour Element Care: Meet the Team

To ensure that you find Element Care a good fit for your healthcare needs, we invite you and your family to tour the Adult Day Health Center closest to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to qualify for PACE?

To be eligible for PACE, an individual must be age 55 or older, want to live in the community but need enough assistance to qualify for nursing home care, be able to live safely in the community and live within our service area. Visit our eligibility page for more details.

If you do not qualify for Medicaid (MassHealth), can you still be eligible for PACE?

Yes. If a person meets the income and asset limits to qualify for Medicaid, Element Care pays for a portion of the monthly PACE premium; Medicare pays for the remainder. Individuals who do not qualify for Medicaid are responsible for the portion of the monthly premium Medicaid would pay. If you are unsure about your Medicaid eligibility, give us a call and our staff can help determine if you qualify.

Do you lose Medicare if you enroll in PACE?

Your Medicare coverage/eligibility is not affected by enrolling with PACE. You will continue to pay your Medicare premium, and Medicare in turn pays a portion to Element Care for the cost of PACE. If you wish to disenroll, your Medicare is quickly and seamlessly set back to how it was before you joined the program.

Does Element Care offer preventative healthcare?

Element Care’s mission is to keep our participants healthy and living in the community for as long as possible. In order to achieve this mission, the medical team at Element Care is very focused on providing preventative care. From teaching participants the value of nutrition to encouraging physical activity, our comprehensive care plan addresses all of our participants needs to keep them living at home safely and comfortably.
