Thank you for Subscribing to Healthcare Business Review Weekly Brief
Hospice utilization continues to rise nationwide, reaching 51 percent in the last two years, according to the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission, a record high. These trends bode well for hospice providers as well as the patients and families in need of their services.
In the business space, a range of hospice care services companies has emerged in recent years to offer services related to advance care planning, navigating the healthcare system, and goals of care conversations. The demand is backed by key developments in the industry, including care management, digital health, and spiritual care.
To put the spotlight on many key developments in the industry, Healthcare Business Review illustrates how the hospice care industry is leveraging the latest developments in hospice care services. The edition also features thought leadership articles from Sarah DiPadova, director of clinical operations, hospice & palliative care programs, Redeemer Health; Mitchell Fong, Vice President of Virtual care, Renown Health; and Sarita Wilson-Guffin, director of spiritual care at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital. They shed light on leveraging the various innovations in hospice care to make it easy for patients and their caregivers.
In this edition of Healthcare Business Review, we also bring to you the story of some of the top hospice care services companies that deliver the best outcomes for their clients. The list comprises Guiding Light Hospice for its team of physicians and caregivers who provide comprehensive care to patients and their families. Equally commendable is the story of Loving Home Care for older patients and their caregivers with love and compassion.
