About This Video

When families reach out to us, one of the questions they ask is, “How much will hospice cost?”

Hospice team member Kelly Olmeda shares that most hospice care is covered by Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance. This coverage includes expert nursing care, medications, equipment, and emotional and spiritual support at no cost to you.

That means that you can focus on what really matters – time with your loved one.

At Hospice of the Piedmont, we’re here to help you understand your care options no matter where you are in your health journey.
