Hospice or treatment?

@vic83 Thanks for the info. I did review my policy last week. It was still hard to ferret out with all the terminology. Looks like chemo is covered, which I’m starting soon. The oncologist said they do have nurse navigators and social workers to help me understand any costs of treatments so I’ll probably utilize them if I start any other treatments like targeted therapy or immune therapy.

@artistrose I don't know how it works with a Medicare Advantage plan, but I have original Medicare and my providers are obligated to tell me if a service is not covered by Medicare or they bear the cost. The service provider has to tell me and offer me a document to sign that I accept the cost myself (Advanced Beneficiary Notice)
