Did you know that hospice is fully covered by Medicare? That’s right, you can rest assured that nursing services, medications, and necessary supplies and equipment are covered by Medicare when there is a diagnosis requiring hospice care.
Palliative Care
Palliative care is an extra layer of support to manage the symptoms and stress of a serious illness. It does not signal that a person is giving up hope for recovery. Studies show that people receiving palliative care experience fewer hospitalizations, improved pain management and better quality of life. It also helps families navigate the health system to get the practical and emotional help they need.
