With some medical issues the best that medicine has to offer is simply greater comfort. When a diagnosis has advanced beyond the possibility of recovery, Hospice is prepared to step in immediately with professional assistance for you and your loved one. Sanitasole has partnered with the nation’s leader in Hospice services and will facilitate your access of care by this outstanding team of skilled and caring professionals.

The goal of Hospice is to attend to the comfort, care and happiness of the terminally ill during the precious time remaining. The Hospice benefit differs from the home health care benefit in some important ways that offer an enhanced alternative to coverage for end-of-life issues.

When are being cared for, Medicare is responsible for paying these Hospice-related home healthcare benefits directly related to the Hospice diagnosis:

1. All prescription and over the counter medications.

2. 100% of all durable medical equipment related to the management of the Hospice    diagnosis.

3. Personal supplies related to the Hospice diagnosis.

4. Bereavement and Family Counseling before and after the beneficiary’s death.

In choosing Hospice rather than traditional home healthcare, Medicare beneficiaries incur no charges for prescriptions related to the terminal diagnosis determined by a physician. Sanitasole understands how difficult this time can be for the entire family.

With Hospice care, our role is to facilitate compassionate care while easing access to the myriad of Hospice services available. Most importantly, we strive to create an environment that is supportive, sensitive and loving.
