The VCC PACE Difference
VCC PACE is a managed care health plan. We accept Medi-Cal, a combination of Medi-Cal and Medicare for those who are dually eligible, or private payment.
What you pay depends on your eligibility under Medicare and Medi-Cal. Our team will help you understand your specific coverage and any potential costs.

The VCC PACE Difference
Navigating health care can feel overwhelming, especially without someone in your corner. VCC PACE becomes that someone. Instead of juggling separate doctors, pharmacies, and specialists on your own, you have one
coordinated team that communicates, shares your care plan, and helps you make informed decisions. Vista Community Clinic has served Southern California
communities since 1972, and VCC PACE brings that same patient-centered approach to seniors across Los Angeles County.
No cost to ask
We’re here to help you explore your options.
Medi-Cal (No Share of Cost)
There is no cost to you if you have Medi-Cal with no share of cost. However, participants with a Medi-Cal share of cost remain responsible for that specific amount, and those without Medi-Cal are subject to a monthly premium. Ultimately, your individual cost is determined by your Medicare and Medi-Cal eligibility.
Other Eligibility
Participants with a Medi-Cal share of cost remain responsible for their individual share. Those without Medi-Cal pay a monthly premium covering long-term care and Medicare Part D drugs.
