Medicare Part A and Hospice Care
Medicare Part A is the portion of Medicare that is available premium-free to all eligible individuals. This part of Medicare benefits provides services associated with hospital, hospice, skilled nursing care and home health care. While you may have read that Medicare Part A covers all costs incurred with hospice, or palliative, care, this is not the case when it comes to custodial care.
