Cost & Insurance
Medicare, Medicaid and most private health insurance policies provide hospice care coverage. The Medicare Hospice Benefit provides a daily allowance to the hospice organization and the cost of hospice care is fully covered under Medicare Part A or hospital insurance. In turn the hospice organization pays for all medical services, medication, durable medical equipment, supplies and treatments related to the hospice diagnosis. Like Medicare, both Medicaid and most private insurance companies also provide coverage for hospice care. Hospice of Northern Colorado provides care to everyone, regardless of ability to pay.
