Interim study to examine appropriations relating to Nebraska's program of all-inclusive care for elderly (PACE) under 42 U.S.C. 1396u-4

This legislative resolution directs Nebraska's Appropriations Committee to conduct an interim study on the state's All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) program. The study will examine current funding levels, eligibility standards, reimbursement methods, and provider availability across the state. It specifically looks at whether aligning PACE eligibility with Medicare standards used in neighboring states would improve outcomes or reduce costs. The committee will review federal and state funding streams, analyze potential savings from using PACE services, and identify best practices from other states. Once completed, the committee will submit findings and recommendations to the Legislature to inform future policy decisions.
