Care You Need, at Zero Cost
All costs are covered by insurance for our hospice patients. This means all medications, medical supplies, and equipment such as oxygen, hospital beds, and bedside commodes are fully included. At Gold Star Hospice, we go beyond standard coverage to ensure that any additional necessary costs are taken care of, so the patient or their family never has to worry about unexpected expenses during this time.
We accept both Medicare and Medi-Cal Insurance.
