Who Qualifies for Hospice in Tracy?
Eligibility is based on diagnosis and prognosis, not age or income. A patient may qualify if a physician certifies that, if the illness follows its expected course, life expectancy is six months or less, and the focus of care has shifted from curative treatment to comfort.
Conditions commonly served include:
- Advanced cancer
- Congestive heart failure (CHF)
- COPD and other pulmonary conditions
- End-stage renal disease
- Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias
- Parkinson’s disease, ALS, and stroke
Hospice is not permanent. If a patient’s condition improves, they can leave hospice and return to other treatment at any time. If you are unsure whether your loved one qualifies, we offer free, no-obligation evaluations.

Talk With Our Care TeamDoes Hospice Cost Anything?
For most Tracy families, the answer is no. The Medicare Hospice Benefit covers nursing visits, medications, medical equipment, social work, spiritual care, and bereavement support at no cost to eligible patients. Medi-Cal and most private insurance plans provide comparable coverage. Our team handles insurance coordination directly and explains your benefits clearly so you can focus on your family.
