It is possible that your condition will improve to the point that you no longer need hospice, or where it again becomes appropriate to seek curative treatment. In such cases, your hospice team can discharge you from the hospice program and help you to transition to a different level of care. If you desire you may return to hospice services at any time.
It is also possible that your life expectancy may exceed the six months originally anticipated when you became eligible for hospice. As long as your doctor and the hospice team certify that your condition is still appropriate for hospice, you may remain on the hospice program.
