What is hospice care in Louisiana?

"Hospice" means an autonomous, centrally administered, medically directed program providing a continuum of home, outpatient and homelike inpatient care for the terminally ill patient and his family.

It is free for patients, their carers and family members. Hospice care can be provided at any stage of a person's condition, not just at the end of their lives. It can include symptom management, and social, practical, emotional and spiritual support.

Hospice is comfort care without curative intent; the patient no longer has curative options or has chosen not to pursue treatment because the side effects outweigh the benefits. Palliative care is comfort care with or without curative intent.

The hospice notifies the. Medicare program that a beneficiary's election is on file by submitting a Notice of Election. (NOE). The NOE is submitted like a claim.

To be eligible to elect hospice, a beneficiary must meet all Louisiana Medicaid eligibility criteria and be certified as terminally ill.

To qualify for Hospice Care, a patient's attending physician and the hospice Medical Director certify that the patient's prognosis is for a life expectancy of 6 months or less if the terminal illness runs its normal course.
