Insurance Coverage
Advantage Hospice & Home Care accepts Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance as payment in full for hospice care. All professional services, medications, equipment, and supplies related to the care plan are covered 100%*.
In order to qualify for Medicare Hospice benefits:

The patient signs a statement indicating that he or she understands hospice and the nature of the illness
The patient receives care from a Medicare approved hospice program
