How Your Contribution Helps: Hospice
Your gift helps everyone receive Hospice care
Dignity. Comfort. Caring. Gratitude. These are some of the words most often used in the notes friends and family of Hospice patients send to CarePartners Foundation.
Medicare, Medicaid and most insurance companies usually pay for the costs of Hospice care. But many people are not covered by any of these policies.
Who are the people who need financial assistance for hospice care? They typically range in age from 28 - 64 years – too young for Medicare and often “too rich” for Medicaid. Their most frequent diagnosis is cancer.
Debbie Aiton, retired Executive Director of CarePartners Hospice says: “Many of the people supported by foundation funds were hard-working, gainfully employed people who had the misfortune to become very sick before the age of 65 and eligibility for Medicare. They are people who have had the misfortune of premature, catastrophic illness and too few resources to sustain them.”
Through your gifts, no one is ever turned away for lack of ability to pay. We believe everyone deserves compassionate care during life’s most difficult and important journey. Thank you for making that possible here in Buncombe County, North Carolina.
