The facilities have a home-like d cor, living rooms and parlors, comfortable furnishings and private patios. There are no visiting hour restrictions, a choice of meals for the patients and facilities for families to cook their favorite foods and even stay overnight. Patients and families can also spend time in the tranquil outdoor courtyard or watch the many birds in the engaging aviary. Medicare patients are fully covered for all Nathan Adelson Hospice services related to their terminal illness. Private insurance and HMO plans will often cover hospice services through a specific hospice benefit or through hospital, home health or private duty benefits.
Families are responsible for any remaining balance unpaid by insurers.
It has been proven that hospice care is substantially less expensive than the typical cycle of hospitalization and home health agency care. A Nathan Adelson Hospice Admissions Coordinator will help you determine your eligibility for Medicare or insurance benefits and assist in finding resources for your family. This commitment is made possible by the generous and compassionate support of individuals and corporations who make donations to the Nathan Adelson Hospice Foundation. In 1978 when the Nathan Adelson Hospice was established, it's Board of Trustees determined that admission to the program would never be based on race, sex, religion, disease or the ability to pay. Through the support of our donors we have been able to continue the Boards commitment to our community.
