Yes. Patients may continue to see their personal physician while also receiving care from Richmed’s hospice team. Our medical director collaborates closely with your physician to ensure seamless, unified care.

Hospice care is covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurance plans. Coverage typically includes visits, medications, equipment, and supplies related to the terminal diagnosis.

Richmed Hospice Services provides care wherever the patient resides — whether at home, in a nursing home, assisted living community, or hospital setting.

Hospice care typically begins when a physician determines a patient has six months or less to live, if the illness follows its expected course. However, early enrollment often provides greater comfort, stability, and emotional support for families.

Hospice care focuses on comfort rather than cure. It is specialized medical, emotional, and spiritual support for individuals with life-limiting illnesses — provided wherever the patient feels most at home.

We understand that hospice care often brings questions — and we’re here to provide clear, compassionate answers.
