Are they any members with cancer who used to be on hospice and decided to stop hospice?

Just curious, why would anyone stop hospice?

I just started with Hospice home visits (not that I plan on dying anytime soon)I am just not seeing doctors on a regular basis anymore.
There is nothing else they can do. I feel pretty good though and get around fine.
I thought I really didn’t need it but my doctors have been trying to talk me into it for awhile.
Just in case there is something that comes up at night or weekends and to help with the costs of meds. Plus it just is good to know someone is watching out for things as they progress.
