Yes,  hospice for the CA and SNF for fx skilled svc.  Of course the Med A is dependant on technical eligibility-has days etc.   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sara Hayden RN,C Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2004 9:31 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Medicare/hospice ?   I have a hospice resident that fell and broke her hip.  Hospice diagnosis is pancreatic cancer.  She has returned from the hospital and her hip fracture was pinned. Would she be eligible for both Medicare A (hip fracture) and hospice (cancer)?   Sara Hayden RN,C St. Mark's Lutheran Home Austin, MN   Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
