AI Summary

  • Direct the Legislative Management to study the program of all-inclusive care for the elderly (PACE) and evaluate benefits of expanding the program
  • PACE provides full-service delivery including preventive, primary, short-term, and long-term care for frail and elderly Medicare and Medicaid-eligible individuals while allowing them to remain at home
  • North Dakota currently has among the lowest income eligibility requirements for PACE, while 24 of 32 states set eligibility at 300 percent of social security income
  • Increasing North Dakota's income eligibility to 300 percent of social security income would increase projected eligible individuals from 121 to 383 in the Fargo area and from 102 to 276 in the Grand Forks area by 2027
  • Require the Legislative Management to report findings, recommendations, and any necessary implementing legislation to the Sixty-ninth Legislative Assembly
