SeniorCare PACE
Sutter Health Sacramento Sierra Region
Sutter SeniorCare (SSC) is a non-profit health plan exclusively for frail older adults. SSC’s model of care is known as the “Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly” or PACE. The PACE model has been recognized as the most appropriate model of comprehensive care for the frail elderly population.
