In recent months, there has been increased attention across the healthcare community regarding hospice services. Reports released by organizations such as Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services have highlighted concerns about some providers not following proper guidelines, including enrolling patients who may not meet eligibility criteria.
This has led to important actions being taken to protect patients and ensure that hospice care remains what it is meant to be—compassionate, appropriate, and centered on those who truly need it.
At Care Plus Hospice, we believe it’s important to approach this conversation with honesty and care. Not all providers are the same, and moments like this remind us how essential it is for families to stay informed and ask questions when choosing hospice services.
We gently encourage families and caregivers to:
• Take time to understand hospice eligibility and services
• Ask providers about their care approach and compliance practices
• Choose a team that prioritizes dignity, comfort, and transparency
We are grateful to share that our recent audit showed no deficiencies or irregularities. This reassures our team and our community that we continue to follow all Medicare guidelines and provide care based on need—not profit.
Our mission has always been simple: to be there for patients and families during one of the most important times in life, with integrity, compassion, and respect.
Thank you for trusting us and for being part of a community that values doing things the right way.
