The Department of Medical Assistance Services (DMAS), State of Virginia, has released its third Request for Applications (RFA) for Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) expansion. The RFA, released July 1, 2014, is for the underserved areas, including ZIP codes, for the Williamsburg and James City areas of Virginia. DMAS has determined the areas are an underserved area for the purpose of PACE. Although the final service area definition will be negotiated between DMAS and the eventual awardee, all applicants must include Williamsburg and James City within the proposed service area geography.

Interested providers intending to submit an application must first submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) by 2:00 PM, local time, July 31, 2014. Prior submission of the LOI is a prerequisite; applicants who did not submit an LOI by the due date, will NOT be considered.

To be eligible for consideration, the required documents must be submitted to DMAS by 2:00 PM, Eastern Standard Time, September 1, 2014.
