Medicare Advantage is changing the ways it pays for hospice—and that could dramatically limit your freedom to choose the hospice you want.
When you re-enroll in your Medicare Advantage plan, ask your insurance agent about whether or not you get to choose your own hospice if you need.
This sounds morbid and unless you’re seriously ill the chances of you needing hospice in any given year is low. But the difference between a high and low quality hospice is very significant.
Make sure you have that freedom by asking this question.
