CMS Pub. 100-16, ch. 8, § 70.3.2
Hospice and PACE Enrollees
CMS will not make payments to Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE)
organizations for enrollees who have elected hospice. Enrollees in PACE organizations
must elect either their PACE organization or the hospice benefit as their provider of
Medicare services. An enrollee who elects to enroll in hospice is thereby disenrolled from
the PACE benefit. However, PACE organizations provide a service similar to hospice
known as “end-of-life-care.”

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
