Inpatient Care and Medical Equipment
Hospices report these services to Medicare when they are certified. This is what COMMUNITY CARE HOSPICE reported, not a check of what it offers today. Confirm current arrangements with the hospice.
- Short-term inpatient care
- Arranged through another hospital or nursing home
- Type of inpatient care
- Both general inpatient care and respite care
- Medical supplies and equipment
- Brought in through an outside supplier
Short stays in a hospice inpatient unit, hospital, or nursing home for pain or symptoms that cannot be managed where the patient lives, or to give family caregivers a break.
Equipment and supplies tied to the terminal illness and the plan of care, such as a hospital bed, oxygen, wound supplies, or a wheelchair.
Medicare lets hospices provide these services through arrangements with other organizations. Either way, the hospice stays responsible for the covered care in the patient’s plan of care.

What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider
Selecting a hospice provider is a personal choice. You should feel comfortable with the team you choose. Here are some questions to help you decide:
- How quickly can your team respond if we have an emergency at night or on the weekend?
- What specific services do you offer to support family caregivers at home?
- How does your team coordinate care with our current primary doctor?
- Can you explain how your team manages pain and other comfort needs?
Take your time when asking these questions. You deserve clear answers that make you feel confident. A good hospice provider will be happy to talk with you. They should listen to your concerns and explain how they can help. Do not feel rushed to pick a provider. You are looking for a partner to support your family during a sensitive time.
