PACE Provider Act of 1995 - Directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to grant waivers of certain requirements of titles XVIII (Medicare), XIX (Medicaid), or any other applicable title of the Social Security Act to approved community-based organizations meeting specified eligibility requirements with demonstrated capacity, following a special trial period, to provide quality, cost-effective, and comprehensive health care services to at-risk frail elderly patients.
