Coverage and Costs
Most hospice care is covered by the Medicare Hospice Benefit, Medi-Cal, and many private insurance plans. Coverage typically includes services, medications, supplies, and equipment related to the hospice diagnosis. Visits from the hospice team are included. Room and board in a facility are usually not covered by Medicare. Other programs may help in certain situations, and we can explain options.
Before care begins, we verify your benefits and review costs in plain language. There are no surprises. If you have questions about coverage, call (714)790-0594. We will review your plan and explain what hospice services in Orange County commonly include under Medicare.
