Mo Cara offers medical care expertise and understanding to serve patients of all ages and all stages of life.  To qualify for hospice care, a physician must certify that life expectancy is six months or less.  But hospice may continue for months, even years, with recertification by a physician or nurse practitioner.

Medicare Part A covers hospice services, and Mo Cara is a Medicare-accredited provider. Alternatively, your loved one may have coverage through employer health insurance, military family plans or long-term care insurance. In any situation, we’ll work together to explore resources.

Your loved one may have already made peace with the idea of hospice care and the comforts it provides. Other times it’s difficult, especially when dementia is present. Lean on the guidance of our experienced social workers and chaplains, who would be a part of your Mo Cara care team.

Most hospice journeys start by researching care providers online—just as you are now. It’s also helpful to seek referrals from trusted healthcare professionals and friends who have been through the end of life experience. The final step is to interview the hospice providers that stand out, asking any questions in your mind to feel connected and confident in your decision.

Palliative Care can be provided at any stage of a serious illness and alongside curative treatments. It aims to manage symptoms, alleviate pain, and improve overall wellbeing, regardless of prognosis with ongoing coordination of care for chronic disease management.
