Mich. Medicaid Provider Manual, Hospice § 4.7
Hospice Elects to Terminate the Beneficiary’s Admission
The hospice may discharge a beneficiary if the beneficiary violates any of the conditions of membership
in the hospice. The decision to discharge a beneficiary and the effective date of the discharge are
determined on an individual basis by the hospice Medical Director.
The hospice may request discharge of a beneficiary for any of the following reasons:
• Fraud;
• Abuse (including repeated instances of willfully and knowingly obtaining health care services for
the terminal illness from non-hospice providers); or
• Misconduct (including violence that interferes with or interrupts the provider’s proper delivery of
health care to the patient or other patients).
