Valley Hospice is Medicare/Medi-Cal certified and accepts Medicare, Medi-Cal, private insurance and other forms of reimbursements for our services. There are no out-of-pocket expenses for patients and/or their families for services related to the hospice diagnosis when payments are made by Medicare or Medi-Cal. While under the care of Valley Hospice, a patient retains full Medicare coverage for any health care needs not related to the terminal diagnosis. In these instances, the patient must continue to pay the applicable deductible and co-insurance amounts under the standard Medicare plan or the co-payment under the Medicare managed care (HMO) plan. In addition, a patient's social security benefits are not affected while under the care of Valley Hospice.
