Iowa Medicaid Hospice Provider Manual ch. III § D.4
Hospice in an Assisted Living Program
For payment of hospice services, an assisted living environment (hospice/AL)
is considered a community, not a facility, living environment.
Hospice/AL does not require the submission of any hospice forms to the DHS
CFEU. However, hospice/AL does require hospice form completion, with the
exception of the CAR, in the hospice member’s case file. All other
documentation requirements, in accordance with Medicare hospice
certification and Medicaid must be maintained.
