Summary
Midland Care Connections is expanding their PACE (Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly) services to include Miami, Franklin, and Johnson counties in Kansas, with partial coverage in Lyon, Marshall, and Nemaha counties. This affects eligibility and billing for elderly patients in these geographic areas who may now qualify for PACE services.
Action Required
Immediately: Front desk staff must update patient eligibility verification procedures to check for PACE coverage for elderly patients residing in the newly expanded service areas (Miami, Franklin, Johnson counties and specific zip codes in Lyon, Marshall, and Nemaha counties). Billing team should verify current PACE Fee-for-Service Provider Manual page 7-2 for updated billing guidelines and coordinate with Midland Care Connections for patients in expanded areas.
