How to pay for hospice care

Hospice care at Pallatus is often fully covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance. Most families have little to no out-of-pocket costs, allowing you to focus on what matters most-comfort, dignity, and time with loved ones.

Medicare and the cost of hospice

To qualify for Medicare-covered hospice care, a patient must be enrolled in Medicare Part A and have a doctor certify a life expectancy of six months or less.

Private insurance & Medicaid coverage

Most private insurance policies and Medicaid programs also cover hospice care. While coverage levels may vary, we'll help verify your benefits.
