The Heart of Hospice Podcast

Five for Friday, Episode 097, Leaving Hospice by Revocation


Listen Later

When a person elects hospice care it doesn't mean they have to remain on hospice. They can choose to revoke the hospice benefit for traditional, or aggressive treatment. In this episode we explain the reasons a person might choose to revoke hospice, and the process to make it happen.  

Here's some things to remember:

  • A revocation is a discharge from hospice that’s initiated by the patient or family.
  • It's the patient’s right to revoke hospice care
  • “Revoking” of hospice benefit means to come off of hospice care, go back to traditional Medicare benefits (if Medicare is the insurance provider).
