Hospice Billing Cash Flow

Hospice is paid a per-diem rate on recurring daily claims that run past 30 days across Medicaid managed care and Medicare Advantage, while you fund care every day.

Common questions

Hospice billing, answered.

No. Copay is not a loan, not factoring, and not a merchant cash advance. Copay purchases your eligible hospice per-diem claims outright and deposits funds the next business day, with no debt and no repayment schedule.

Hospice is dominated by Medicare and Medicaid managed care per-diem payment, so Copay purchases eligible claims billed to traditional Medicare, Medicaid managed care, and Medicare Advantage plans such as Humana, along with commercial plans including UnitedHealthcare and Aetna.

Hospice is paid a per-diem rate by level of care, billed on recurring daily claims that often extend well beyond 30 days across Medicaid managed care and Medicare Advantage plans. Copay purchases those eligible claims and funds them the next business day, so nursing, social work, chaplaincy, and bereavement stay funded every day while the per-diem revenue lags.

No. Your billing team submits routine home care, continuous home care, inpatient respite, and general inpatient claims exactly as they do today. Copay reviews eligibility in the background, and the only thing that changes is when you get paid.

Non-recourse means a denied eligible claim is Copay's loss, not yours. If an eligible purchased hospice claim is denied or underpaid, Copay absorbs the loss with no clawbacks against your agency.
