Yes. Medicare Part A covers hospice care in full for patients a doctor certifies as having six months or less to live if the illness runs its normal course. Patients may pay up to $5 per prescription for pain and symptom drugs and 5% of the cost of inpatient respite care. Choosing hospice means stopping treatment meant to cure the terminal illness, but Medicare still covers care for unrelated conditions.
