Medicare’s hospice benefit comforts patients, families

By Bob Moos
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
Choosing hospice care isn’t about giving up. It’s about making every day count.
Terminally ill people who make the choice receive care for their physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs. They’re no longer seeking a cure, but they do want to live out their last weeks and months as comfortably as possible and with dignity. http://www.etypeservices.com/SWF/LocalUser/Casscounty1//Magazine25115/Full/index.aspx?id=25115
