PART D PARTNER PLANS FOR 2023



PACE/PACENET benefits are considered "creditable coverage" which means that the benefits offered through this program are as good as or better than the prescription benefits offered through Medicare Part D. However, we encourage individuals to be enrolled in PACE/PACENET and Part D together. By doing so, cardholders can potentially save even more money when buying their prescription medications, and it helps the PACE Program save money, too!
