SSG Academy: Medicare Benefits for Hospice/Palliative Care, May 17th 10:00 -11:00am PT
Understanding Your Medicare Benefits for Hospice & Palliative Care
The majority of Americans (80%) say they would prefer to be cared for and die at home and yet only 38% of us receive hospice care. Deepka Mehta, California Hospice & Palliative Care Association, believes the best time to learn and ask about hospice is before those services are needed. Hear Deepka and SSG Specialist, Micki Nozaki, California Health Advocates, to learn more about the Medicare hospice benefit, who is eligible, what services are AND are not provided, and protecting yourself from hospice fraud.
This virtual event is hosted in partnership with the California Senior Medicare Patrol.
