Hospice costs are covered by Medicare as long as it is verified by your doctor that you are terminally ill and likely have less than six months to live. Regardless of how long you live, you can remain in hospice care for the duration of the time that your doctor declares that you are, in fact, terminally ill. Initially you will be granted 90 days of hospice care. If necessary, you will be granted another 90 days upon recertification by your doctor.

A white coating can also be a sign of thrush, which is an infection of the mouth with the yeast Candida albicans.
