United Hospice wants to be a resource for healthcare professionals. As such, our team is always available to answer questions about the hospice benefit. We know that doctors and nurse practitioners understand their patients best.

A physician or nurse practitioner providing care to a patient enrolled in United Hospice can still receive reimbursement for the services provided. If the patient is covered by private insurance or Medicaid, the healthcare provider should bill for services as they would typically do. If Medicare covers the patient, the Federal government has established some billing guidelines. To find out more about the provider billing guidelines, click here.<\/p>\n
