How do I pay for hospice?

Hospice care is typically 100% covered by a patient's insurance provider. We believe excellent end-of-life care is a healthcare right; we strive to never turn away a patient due to an inability to pay.

Who qualifies for hospice?

We serve individuals who have a terminal diagnosis, have a life expectancy of six months or less, and are ready to stop curative treatments.

What areas do you serve?

We serve patients and families in Southern California including the following counties: Los Angeles County and Orange County. Stay tuned for service in Pennsylvania soon.

What is not covered by hospice care?

  • Curative treatment and prescriptions for your primary diagnosis
  • Caregiver
  • Room and board
  • Hospital, Emergency Room, or ambulance services
  • 24-hour care

What are the signs I should consider hospice care?

  • Increased visits to the Emergency Room
  • Frequent falls or hospitalizations
  • Increased assistance needed with daily functions
  • A diagnosed life-limiting illness 

If you'd like to speak with someone about whether you should consider hospice support, a member of our care team would be happy to assist. You can call us anytime at (323) 300-4707.
