Enrollment Steps

Enrollment Steps

We're ready to assist you with enrollment. At PACE North, we want to make the enrollment process as effortless as possible for you and anyone assisting you.

There are four main steps

 

Step 1:   INTAKE - A Home Visit to get to know you.

An Intake Specialist from PACE North will come to your home to learn more about you.

✔ Biographical Information

✔ Insurance Information, including Medicare & Medicaid eligibility status

✔ Family Contact Information

✔ Medical Information

 

Step 2:   LEVEL OF CARE DETERMINATION, HOME SAFETY ASSESSMENT, AND ENROLLMENT - A second Home Visit to conduct assessments.

The PACE North Enrollment Coordinator will come to your home and conduct assessments to determine medical eligibility and service needs.  If you are eligible and wish to enroll with PACE North, an Enrollment Packet will be reviewed and a signature will be required at this point.  Once enrolled, the process of creating your individualized plan of care will begin.  Your Enrollment Coordinator will inform you of the effective date of your enrollment at this time.

 

Step 3:   PLAN OF CARE ASSESSMENTS - Our scheduler will contact you to arrange for you and a friend or family member (if you wish) to visit the PACE North Center for your assessments to determine your plan of care.

At the Center, you will meet with Interdisciplinary Team members for your individual assessments. You'll be introduced to your Care Team (Provider, RN Care Manager, and Social Worker). This is a good time for you to see the PACE North Center in action, meet others in the program and learn more about what PACE North has to offer.  We can provide your transportation and we'll invite you and your guest to join us for lunch.  This is generally a long day, but productive and informative.  If needed, it may be divided into a couple of days.

The Interdisciplinary Team includes:

  • Health Care Providers
  • Registered Nurse
  • Masters-level Social Workers
  • Occupational, Physical, and Speech Therapists
  • Recreational Therapists
  • Dietician
  • PACE Center Director
  • Home Health Care Coordinator
  • Certified Nursing Assistants
  • Transportation Coordinator

 

Step 4:   SERVICES BEGIN

PACE North effective dates are the 1st of the month.  The Enrollment Coordinator will confirm your effective date when you sign enrollment documents.  Enrollment continues as long as you are eligible and choose to be a PACE North participant.

The Interdisciplinary Team has 30 days from enrollment to complete and review with you, your plan of care.  During this time your urgent or immediate needs will be cared for beginning with the effective date of your enrollment.  Once your plan of care is determined, your RN Care Manager will review it with you for your signature.  The plan of care is reviewed at least every six months.
