A good majority of individuals who have Medicare or Medicaid frequently ask if hospice care is covered by these government programs. Although there are still a lot of them who do not want to face the fact that they may need hospice care since for many, hospice care is for people who are near death and cannot do anything or take care of themselves. While this is partly true, many individuals who are taken into or given hospice care can still be quite full of life. Medicaid hospice services are covered in some states in the US, depending on the set guidelines by these individual states and since they generally determine how to distribute their Medicaid fund. There are other states  where hospice services is not awarded to people who have Medicaid only, but they can cater hospice services to those who are recipients of both  Medicaid and Medicare.
