A. "An individual must qualify for disability insurance under Medicare." B. "The cost of the home hospice care does involve a copay with Medicare." C. "The cost of the home hospice care is covered under Medicare Part A." D. "An individual must have supplemental insurance along with Medicare."

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. "An individual must qualify for disability insurance under Medicare." This is incorrect as Medicare coverage for hospice care does not depend on disability insurance; it is based on the diagnosis and eligibility for hospice care.
B. "The cost of the home hospice care does involve a copay with Medicare." This is incorrect because Medicare generally covers hospice care with minimal costs, including no copay for hospice care itself, though there may be small charges for some items or services.
C. "The cost of the home hospice care is covered under Medicare Part A." This is correct. Medicare Part A covers hospice care if the client meets eligibility requirements for terminal illness and hospice care.
D. "An individual must have supplemental insurance along with Medicare." This is incorrect as Medicare Part A provides coverage for hospice care, and supplemental insurance is not required for this specific coverage.
