Below we have mentioned 2 common questions people generally ask about Hospice care. Take a look. 

  1. How do I pay for Hospice services? 

At professional healthcare resources is Hospice services are covered by Medicare and to qualify for such coverage the patient has to be declared terminally ill with 6 months or lesser life span. Apart from Medicare, you can also pay via Medicaid, TriCare, and Kaiser Permanente. As opposed to the popular belief hospital care is for any end stage chronic illness, just not for cancer. 

2. How to choose the right Hospice provider? 

To make the right decision you must do a thorough background search about the Hospice provider you are about to hire. How long the agency has been in business, whether they are licensed or not, whether they extend their services to the family of their patients, these are a few points to consider when you are choosing your provider.
