For those with advantage plans, hospice care always resorted back to traditional Medicare. Looks like they did a pilot under advantage plans but sunset that early. People will continue receiving hospice care under traditionalMedicare. It's cheaper than curative care especially when docs run out of treatment options. Plus we all gotta go someday!
The patients will not be in limbo as they can dump the HP and go with a moral sympathetic Hospice that is more concerned with patient and family than CEO, VP and DIRECTORS who are below substandard and taking up the huge payroll and bonuses.
