When               a               patient               is               put               into               this               program               they               give               up               their               standard               Medicare               program               in               exchange               for               the               coverage               for               Hospice               Care.

               Medicaid
               Medicaid               is               a               state               health               care               plan               for               low               income               individuals               and               families.

The               rules               and               requirements               change               from               state               to               state,               as               do               the               services               provided               through               the               program.

There               are               variations               of               this               program               including               "Healthease"               which               group               the               various               levels               of               services               provided               based               on               the               needs               and               qualifications               of               the               client.
               The               financial               requirements               for               eligibility               will               vary               in               each               state.

When               it               comes               to               services               covered               by               this               program,               the               care               must               be               provided               with               the               supervision               of               a               Medical               Doctor.

This               does               include               home               health               services,               but               must               be               deemed               necessary               by               the               MD               before               the               coverage               for               care               will               be               approved.
               As               someone               who               has               been               a               client               of               these               programs               for               the               last               several               years,               I               have               learned               that               business               controls               how               we               get               our               care               from               these               programs               more               than               what               we               as               the               patient               actually               need.

However,               when               you               are               deemed               qualified               for               these               services               it               does               make               life               much               easier               for               your               healthcare               concerns.
