Is CarePartners the Right Choice for You?
Making a decision about hospice can be difficult, but you do not have to make it alone. We encourage you to include your health care providers as well as friends, family members, clergy and trusted advisors in the decision. You can also call us at (828) 255-0331 for more information and help deciding if CarePartners is the right choice for you.
Hospice Care Eligibility
To enter hospice care, a patient should have:
- A terminal diagnosis with a life expectancy of months rather than years
- A desire to receive comfort care with a focus on quality of life
- No option for curative treatments, or have made the choice to discontinue treatment
Patients with terminal diagnoses who are not yet ready to enter hospice may benefit from Palliative Care.
Hospice care is covered under many private insurance companies as well as Medicare, Medicaid, CHAMPUS and Veterans Affairs. Payment plans are available and, to the maximum extent possible, care will be provided regardless of a patient’s ability to pay.
We can help you decide if CarePartners Hospice and Palliative care is right for you.
