Episode Synopsis

Profitability is good and essential, but the significant increase in the number of for profit hospice organizations has had an impact and much of that is not so good. In this episode, I speak with Diana Franchitto, President and CEO of HopeHealth, which is a leading non-profit hospice and palliative care organization. We discuss this trend and answer the question: does this matter? Spoiler alert - it does.Additionally, we discuss how to choose the best hospice for your loved one, a decision that often must be made during a very intense and challenging time.Links:45.
