Inpatient Care and Medical Equipment
Hospices report these services to Medicare when they are certified. This is what HARMONY 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
- Respite care (up to five days at a time, to give family caregivers a break)
- Medical supplies and equipment
- Supplied directly by this hospice
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
Ask these questions to understand how a provider works. First, ask how quickly a nurse can get to your home if an emergency happens at night. You should also ask how they handle pain management for difficult symptoms. Ask how many staff members will visit your loved one each week. It is also wise to ask how they support family members with grief. Ask if they have staff available on weekends or holidays. You need to know who to call when you have a concern at three in the morning. A good provider will answer these questions clearly and with patience. They should explain their process in words you understand. Do not feel rushed during your conversation with them. You are looking for a partner in care. The right agency will make you feel heard and respected throughout the entire process.
