When is it time for hospice? Who is eligible?

Many times families wait too long to seek comfort (palliative) care and support for end-of-life needs. Choosing hospice care isn’t giving up; it’s seeking needed support for your loved one’s unique needs so you don’t have to navigate these times alone. When a doctor has determined the patient has a life expectancy of six months or less, and curative treatments aren’t working or are no longer desired, it’s time to call in hospice. Talk with your doctor and ask these questions: Is it Time for Hospice? Learn more by reading Criteria for Hospice Care.

Medicare, Medicaid, VA benefits, and most private health insurance plans offer hospice benefits and coverage. Medicare beneficiaries receive hospice at little to no cost. Read more here: Eligibility and Paying For Hospice.
