Who Qualifies
Understanding Hospice Eligibility
Hospice care is a Medicare and Medi-Cal benefit available to patients with a life-limiting illness. You don't have to wait until the very end — earlier enrollment often means more time for comfort and connection.
A physician has determined a life expectancy of 6 months or less if the illness follows its natural course
The patient chooses comfort-focused care over curative treatment
Diagnosis includes cancer, heart failure, COPD, dementia, ALS, or other serious illness
Patient is enrolled in Medicare Part A, Medi-Cal, or qualifying private insurance
Care can be provided at home, in a skilled nursing facility, or assisted living
Family members and caregivers are included in the care plan at no additional cost
For Families
You don't have to navigate this alone
We guide families through every step — from the first conversation to bereavement support. Our team is here to answer questions, ease fears, and help you make the most of the time you have together.
For Physicians
A trusted partner for your patients
Aceso Hospice works seamlessly alongside referring physicians. We handle the coordination, documentation, and 24/7 clinical support — so your patients receive expert comfort care while you stay informed.
Our Philosophy
Rooted in community. Present in every moment.
Dignity above all
Every person deserves to be seen, heard, and honored — regardless of diagnosis, background, or circumstance. We enter each home as guests, and we leave it better than we found it.
Families are part of the team
We don't care for patients in isolation. The people who love them are central to everything we do — included in care planning, educated at every step, and supported long after loss.
Presence over procedure
Clinical excellence matters deeply. But so does sitting quietly with someone who is afraid, or calling a family member just to check in. We measure our work in moments, not metrics.
Giving back to our community
Aceso Hospice is proud to serve alongside the first responders, volunteers, and neighbors who make Ventura County, Los Angeles, and Santa Barbara the communities they are. Caring for our community is not just our mission — it is who we are.
The Aceso team gave our mother the peaceful, dignified passing she deserved. They were present, kind, and deeply professional — and they held our family together when we couldn't hold ourselves.
