Ga. Medicaid Part II Policies & Procedures for Hospice Services § 904
Core Services
Nursing services, medical social services and counseling are core hospice services and must
routinely be provided directly by hospice employees. Supplemental services may be contracted to
meet unusual staffing needs that cannot be anticipated and that occur so infrequently it would not be
practical to hire additional staff to fill these needs. You may also contract to obtain physical specialty
services. If contracting is used for any services, the hospice agency must maintain professional,
financial and administrative responsibility for the services and assure that all staff meets the
regulatory qualification requirements.
