Choosing a Home Health Provider

Finding appropriate home health and hospice care providers needs some research. Here's what you need to consider when evaluating a provider.

Important Decisions to Be Made in the Dying Process

Many families want their loved ones to die at home in their natural and most comfortable setting. Others don't feel they can emotionally handle end-of-life-care and death at home. Read on for a look at some of the important decisions to be made.

Using Investigational Medicines

Investigational medicine use describes the use of investigational medicines by seriously ill people not enrolled in clinical trials.

Paying for Long-Term Care, Home Healthcare, and Hospice Care

Home healthcare services may be paid for directly by the patient, through insurance coverage, or through other public or private sources. Most hospice care programs are provided to the patient regardless of the patient's ability to pay. Read on to learn more.

Patient Rights

If you are unhappy with the home health or hospice care you are receiving, you should notify the provider's administrator, your state health department, and the Better Business Bureau.
