DID YOU KNOW…

One question that we get asked regularly is, “Does Medicare cover the cost of Respite Care?” Most senior loved ones have Medicare coverage, and, in their policy, it states that respite care is covered.  Yet, please read it carefully.

 “Medicare covers most of the cost for respite care when it is a part of the patient’s hospice care, and only on an occasional basis lasting no more than five days in a row.  If you require respite care more often, or wish to have someone come into your home, Medicare does not cover the cost. Prices vary depending on where you live, the agency you use, and the services that you ask for.”    Medicare.org

Basically, Medicare ONLY covers respite care for up to 5 days IF your loved one is being cared for by hospice.  This coverage is not for in-home care but at an approved facility.

Visiting Angels Casa Grande provides non-medical, in-home care services that are paid for by the client or their family. Other payment options are private Long Term Care insurance policies or Veteran’s benefits. Give us a call to set up a complimentary consultation.  We're here for you!
