We will work with you and your physician to determine eligibility. The Medicare and Medicaid Hospice Benefits cover services related to the terminal prognosis*. We will assist in checking your benefit coverage to make sure you understand any potential out-of-pocket costs. Typically all hospice services are covered by Medicare and Medicaid, as well as many private insurances, with no out-of-pocket costs for eligible beneficiaries. Hospice also covers medication, medical supplies an medical equipment related to the hospice diagnosis*. Managed Medicaid programs and HMOs may require co-pays and deductibles for hospice care.
