Mich. Medicaid Provider Manual, Hospice § 3.5
Duration of Coverage
Based on hospice eligibility criteria, the duration of hospice services is generally six months or less.
There is no minimum period of hospice admission. A change in the beneficiary’s prognosis could
eliminate the need for hospice care. A beneficiary may cancel their admission in the hospice at any time
and without cause. Beneficiaries who become ineligible for Medicaid while admitted in a hospice also
become ineligible for Medicaid reimbursement for hospice services.
