Certification, recertification and required face-to-face encounters handled within regulatory windows, with records returned so your chart stays audit-ready.

Medicare-covered

For eligible patients, the Medicare Part A hospice benefit covers hospice care related to the terminal illness with little to no out-of-pocket cost — we verify coverage during intake.

Provider FAQ

How do I refer a patient to Eternal Life Hospice?

Call us at 805.953.7273, submit the referral form above, or coordinate a secure fax to 805.953.8530. Share the patient's demographics, diagnosis and contact information, and our intake team confirms eligibility and arranges admission — often the same day.

Who can refer a patient to hospice?

Anyone can start a referral — physicians, hospital discharge planners, case managers, skilled nursing facilities, assisted living and RCFE communities, home health agencies, and families. A physician certification of a terminal prognosis is required for admission, and our team helps coordinate it.

When is a patient eligible for hospice?

A patient may be eligible for the Medicare hospice benefit when a physician certifies a terminal prognosis of six months or less if the illness runs its normal course, and the goals of care shift from cure to comfort. Our team confirms appropriateness with you before admission.

How quickly can you admit a patient?

We offer same-day admissions when clinically appropriate, backed by 24/7 on-call nursing. Once eligibility is confirmed, we move quickly so your patient is supported without delay.

In what settings do you provide care?

We bring hospice care to wherever the patient calls home — private residences, assisted living communities, residential care facilities for the elderly (RCFE) and skilled nursing facilities — across Ventura and Los Angeles counties.

Is hospice covered by Medicare?

Yes. For eligible patients, the Medicare Part A hospice benefit covers hospice services related to the terminal diagnosis — including the care team, medications for symptom relief, and related medical equipment — with little to no out-of-pocket cost. A small copay may apply for some outpatient comfort medications or inpatient respite care. We verify coverage as part of intake.

What integrative comfort therapies are available?

As part of a whole-person approach, we offer optional, comfort-focused integrative support such as music, massage, aromatherapy, Reiki, and sound bath or singing bowl support. These are provided for patient comfort and wellbeing and are not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any condition.

Will I receive updates after I refer a patient?

Yes. Referring providers receive timely documentation and updates so you remain informed and your records stay audit-ready throughout the patient's care.
