How Do I receive Hospice? Anyone can refer a patient to hospice service. One of our team members will visit you to assess your needs and work with your doctor to determine if you qualify for the benefit. Meeting with a hospice team is free of charge, and you will learn about the benefits you may be entitled to receive. We want you to have the knowledge you need to make informed decisions about your care. The hospice benefit is an elective benefit. You can stop it at any time and renew your traditional benefits. https://lnkd.in/gUgWduiX
