Yeah, on the last day she was in the house, the social workers came to evaluate her to see if we would pay, or the state would pay. They determined that we should pay. The (cough) mistake that we made was we gave her painkillers before the visit because she was writhing in pain. If the social workers saw the writhing, they would have picked up the tab. (The hospice later retroactively admitted her so we paid nothing.) Edit: And I don't regret giving my mom painkillers. But, I had to make a point to my Dad that the social workers saw his nice, well kept house, all of our nice cars, pictures from nice vacations, ect, and decided that $400-$1200 to keep Mom comfortable was well within our budget.
