According to CMS, who should pay for all drugs related to hospice conditions?

The correct choice is Medicare Part A because, under the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) guidelines, hospice care is covered primarily by Medicare Part A. Medicare Part A includes coverage for inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing facility care, hospice, and some home health care services. When a patient elects hospice care, they receive comprehensive services aimed at providing comfort and support for terminal conditions, including all needed drugs related to their hospice diagnosis.

Medicate Part A directly covers medications related to the hospice condition when they are part of the hospice benefit, and this coverage ensures that patients receive necessary medications without cost-sharing. Other options, such as Medicaid or Medicare Part B, do not encapsulate the full range of benefits specifically tailored to hospice care, and private insurance can vary widely in terms of coverage policies. This makes Medicare Part A the most appropriate choice for coverage of medications related to hospice conditions.
