Hospice Care is Available, Affordable, and Accredited…

Hospice care is a covered benefit under Medicare, Medicaid (NJ, PA, DE and most states,) and by most private health insurance plans. Medication, equipment and supplies, related to the admitting diagnosis are also fully covered.

Moorestown Visiting Nurse Association and The Hospice of Moorestown VNA are Medicare/Medicaid certified, licensed by the State of New Jersey, and accredited by the Community Health Accreditation Program.

Referrals for hospice service can be made by the patient, caregiver, family member, or professional. The patient or power of attorney maintains control of all decisions relating to hospice care.

A patient may discontinue hospice care at any time and return to cure-oriented care, a decision that will be respected and supported by The Hospice of Moorestown VNA.

There is no cost and no obligation for an initial consultation.
