Look for our column printed on the fourth Wednesday edition of the ‘Illinois Valley News’. Question: “I have a friend who has been told that she has eighteen months to live but is having pain. How can she get on hospice care?” Answer: The guideline for most insurance com- panies to cover hospice care is a six month prog- nosis (life expectancy). There are still some things your friend can do right now. First and most important is to let their doctor know that the pain is not being controlled and ask for an evalua- tion. Second, any pain medication ordered by the doctor needs to be taken regularly and ac- cording to the directions. Finally, you can help her prepare for the time when she will need hos- pice care.
