If you have already made up your mind then I have smth for you. Good thing there are healthcare programs that can help alleviate anxieties about overpaying for hospice services. Patients can qualify for Medicare benefits to subsidize and fund their hospice care.

The patient's primary care or specialist doctor like an cardiologist or oncologist has to say that the patient is terminally ill and has a life expectancy of six months or less The hospice care company will come to the patient's home and admit them onto a hospice care program with the agency they work for. Sometimes the hospice agency will come to the hospital and admit the patient onto hospice before their discharge to their home. One of the reasons they do this before the patient is discharged so they can get hospital bed delivered and set up before the patient gets home and other medical equipment like oxygen, bedside commode, wheelchair, bedside table, and walker and sometimes a shower chair or bench. Also they will put in place standard prescription orders . Most hospice agencies used a pharmacy the does overnight drop shipment with FedEx.

Medicare does not cover room and board if you receive hospice care in your home or if you live in a nursing home or hospice in-patient facility. Hospice providers provide comprehensive services that benefit both the patient and their family members. It is important to understand that the following services may be part of a patient's plan of care and are at least partially covered by Medicare.

If you have Medicare Part A (hospital insurance) and you meet all of these conditions, you are eligible for hospice care:

1. Your hospice doctor and your regular doctor (if you have one) certify that you are critically ill (with a life expectancy of 6 months or less).

2. You accept comfort care (palliative care) rather than care to cure your illness.

3. You sign a statement choosing hospice care instead of other Medicare-covered treatments for your terminal illness and related conditions.
