What are the Differences Between Hospice Care and Palliative Care?

Key differences between Hospice Care and Palliative Care

Location - Hospice Care is most often given by a team of doctors, nurses, and therapists at the patient’s home. Palliative Care is most often, given at the place where the person is receiving medical treatment Requirements - A person is enrolled in Hospice Care by their physician after he or she determines that the patient has a terminal illness. A decision for Palliative Care does not require that a person must be terminally ill. It only requires that a patient must have reached a point where they a suffering and in pain. Medicare Coverage - When a person is enrolled in Hospice Care and has Medicare, all treatment and support services are paid for by Medicare Part A. If the patient had Medicare Part B, they must give it up. When a person is enrolled in Palliative Care and has both Medicare Parts A & B they keep all benefits from both programs. Amount of Care - In Hospice Care if a person needs 24/7 care, the Hospice team of doctors, nurses and therapists are on hand to provide it. In a Palliative Care setting although medical assistance is always on call, they are not necessarily by the person’s bedside 24/7. Insurance Coverage - In Hospice Care everything a person needs is handled through a single program. This includes things like medications, daily care, medical equipment, counseling, symptom treatment, and counseling. In Palliative Care there may be multiple providers involved, each with their own eligibility, level of care, and billing procedures. Use of Life-prolonging Therapies - In Hospice care, life-prolonging therapies are usually not part of the medical treatment program. In Palliative Care no such limitations exist. Life-prolonging as well as health-recovery medical treatments can continue alongside Palliative Care
