Care Philosophy and Coverage

South Carolina marketing copy archived in research states that Ardent's philosophy focuses on embracing the patient's condition while fostering love and meaning during the hospice journey—not on curing the terminal illness. The same materials note that Medicare and many insurers cover hospice care for qualifying patients, with the benefit covering services, medications, equipment, and supplies related to the hospice diagnosis, subject to plan rules and eligibility.
