Preguntas frecuentes

When should families consider hospice?

Hospice is appropriate when a physician determines that a patient has a life expectancy of six months or less if the illness runs its normal course, and the patient chooses comfort care over curative treatment. It's often beneficial to start earlier rather than later — studies show patients who receive hospice care often live longer and more comfortably.

What services does hospice include?

Hospice provides pain and symptom management, nursing visits, medical equipment (hospital bed, wheelchair, oxygen), medications related to the terminal diagnosis, social work support, chaplain services, and bereavement counseling for families. Care is delivered wherever the patient calls home — a private residence, assisted living, or nursing facility.

Is hospice covered by insurance?

The Medicare Hospice Benefit covers virtually all hospice services with little to no out-of-pocket cost to the patient. Medicaid also covers hospice in all states, and most private insurance plans include hospice benefits. The benefit covers medications, equipment, nursing visits, and support services related to the terminal diagnosis.
