The Care Gap in Aging America: Evan Jackson on PACE Programs, Older Adults, and Closing the AI Gap

Most physicians have never heard of PACE — Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly — and that is a problem. PACE is a Medicare and Medicaid model that wraps all-inclusive care around older adults: primary care, social work, nutrition, transportation, dementia support, and more, with most participants paying zero out of pocket. Evan Jackson is the co-founder and President, Growth for IntusCare. He and Robbie Felton founded the start up while attending  Brown University. They spent time inside a PACE program before building IntusCare, the technology platform now serving 70+ PACE organizations and 50,000 participants nationwide. In this conversation, we get into how AI is reshaping care documentation and risk prediction, what wearables and remote monitoring mean for rural PACE programs, and why physicians who don't know about PACE are leaving one of the best tools  for older adult patient care on the table. We also talk sleep, coffee, crossword puzzles, and what working with the elderly every day does to how you think about your own health.
