Nope. A representative for a for profit Hospice company came over to talk at my senior apartment building about hospice. She said that Medicare required that Hospice was only for people whose doctors had determined that they would die in about a month. But she said we didn't need to worry about that because some of these people were still alive, and on hospice care, after 18 months.OdeToJoy » 02 Jul 2023, 7:25 am » wrote: ↑ Nope.

There are a lot of videos on YouTube about the level of fraud in Hospice care.
