Medicare & Medicaid Coverage

Medicare Part A covers 100% of hospice care for eligible patients, whether they receive care at home, in a nursing facility, or in a hospital inpatient unit.

Traditional Medicaid also covers hospice care at any location and level of care, including supplies and professional services related to the terminal diagnosis.
