Paying for Hospice
Don’t Worry, You’re Covered
Hospice provides a full range of services for people with serious illness. It also supports loved ones and caregivers. It’s hard enough facing the fact that your aging or terminally ill loved one will be entering hospice shortly, but add the stress of determining how to pay for it all, and it’s understandable why you might feel overwhelmed.
At Mission Healthcare, we are dedicated to helping our patients receive the best and most affordable care possible, which is why we work with a variety of insurance companies and policies.
