  • Medicare

    While Medicare mandates the minimum services that hospice patients must receive, at Missouri Palliative & Hospice Care, we are committed to exceeding industry standards. We recognize that each patient’s life experiences and spiritual beliefs have created a unique individual who deserves the finest care and emotional support, while honoring and respecting their needs and wishes.

    We accept Medicare payments at the same rate as non-profit hospices do and we lower Medicare’s expenses by caring for patients in their home.

  • Hospice Benefit

    Of all the benefits available to our patients we believe the hospice benefit is the most misunderstood of them all. The benefits are incredible, the cost is negligible and yet the participation rate is low. We believe this is because of a fundamental misunderstanding of the program.

Testimonials

I cannot say enough amazing things about the nursing staff. From day one they we’re helpful, they even taught us how to change out the depends. We never experienced anything like this before and they eased our minds. No one wants to go through this but from the Nursing staff, Home Health Aids, and the Social worker we knew we were not alone in this process. Thank you!
