Yes. The Medicare Hospice Benefit covers hospice care nationwide — usually at little or no cost to the family — when a doctor certifies a life expectancy of six months or less if the illness runs its normal course. Every hospice listed here is Medicare-certified.
How do I know which hospices serve my address?
Each hospice reports the ZIP codes it serves to Medicare. Enter your ZIP code in the finder on the homepage to see exactly which hospices list it — then call to confirm, because service areas can change between Medicare updates.
What do the star ratings mean?
Stars come from Medicare's CAHPS survey, which asks bereaved family caregivers about their experience. Medicare publishes a star rating only when a hospice has enough survey responses — a missing rating never means poor care.
