Who Pays For Services?
Cornerstone Hospice
accepts Medicare, Medicaid, Private Insurance and other forms of reimbursement.
Medicare / Medicaid:
Medicare
and most state Medicaid programs offer coverage of Cornerstone Hospice
services. Since Cornerstone Hospices accept Medicare and Medicaid as 100%
coverage for its hospice services, there are no out-of-pocket expenses to
patients or their families for Cornerstone Hospice care. For
care unrelated to the patient's primary diagnosis, Medicare and Medicaid will
continue to provide their normal benefits.
Private Insurance: Since
each insurance company has its own policies, Cornerstone Hospice can contact the
patient's insurer to ask about the coverage provided for hospice care.
The effectiveness and safety of care, treatment, and services
does not depend on the patient's ability to pay.
