Overview
Mission
Aipace is a supporting organization, operated for the benefit of and to support international community health services.
What it reported doing in 2025
Aging in pace Washington is a supporting organization, operated for the benefit of and to support international community health services's (ichs) pace program. The pace program operated by ichs is an integrated model of care that enables medicare and medicaid beneficiaries aged 55 years old or older who are certified by their state as needing nursing home care to live as independently as possible in their own homes and community. The pace program coordinates and provides all needed preventive, primary, acute and long term care services. The pace program is governed by the center for medicare and medicaid services (cms) at the federal level and by the state of Washington department of social and health services (dshs) at the state level. This program is highly regulated, subject to compliance with the cms rules and regulations. The deed of the pace program property was transferred from aipace to ichs (application filed in 2025 and approved by king county in 2026).
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Affiliate-supported. 81% of the money available for current operations came from contributions from related organizations.
- Distribution model
- Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% of its reported program spending out as grants.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and expenses are high relative to revenue.
