Licensed facilities across the KC metro — Missouri and Kansas.
Hospice provides comfort-focused care for someone with a life-limiting illness, typically with a prognosis of six months or less, wherever they call home. The interdisciplinary team manages pain and symptoms and supports the whole family, including bereavement care afterward. It is about quality of remaining life rather than curative treatment, and the Medicare hospice benefit usually covers it in full.
KC Senior Advisor tracks 3 licensed licensed hospice agencies across the Kansas City metro on both sides of the state line — 1 on the Missouri side (Jackson, Clay, Platte, and Cass counties) and 2 on the Kansas side (Johnson and Wyandotte counties). Typical cost in 2026: $24–$36/hr.
Hospice agencies are licensed by MO DHSS in Missouri and KDADS in Kansas and are Medicare-certified for the hospice benefit, which covers care wherever the patient lives — home, assisted living, or a nursing facility. The Medicare hospice benefit (or MO HealthNet MLTC / KanCare for those not on Medicare) typically covers the care, medications, and equipment related to the terminal diagnosis at no cost to the family.
