Happy Friday! Start your weekend by listening to actor Brendan Gleeson as he shares a deeply personal story. Gleeson shares the story of his parents final days at St. Francis Hospice in Dublin, and speaks from the heart about the positive experience they all went though. He reflects on how understanding the transient nature of life can help us appreciate how precious it is, and when the time comes, hospice can offer a compassionate, “beautiful” and supportive environment. Take a few moments to tune in to the segment and join us in acknowledging the extraordinary work of hospice caregivers. #HospiceCare https://lnkd.in/eSJG92qw

The advocacy efforts of our member, Hospice & Palliative Care Association of New York State (HPCANYS) have paid off with the creation of the Center for Hospice and Palliative Care at New York State's Department of Health. This is a true testament to the power of persistent advocacy and the impact HPCANYS has had in shaping end-of-life care in NY. We couldn’t be prouder of what they’ve accomplished and the difference it will make!

Last week, Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and U.S. Representative Nanette Barragán (D-CA) introduced the Compassionate Care Act, a bill aimed at enhancing advance care planning and end-of-life care. Many Americans lack plans for severe illness scenarios. The Compassionate Care Act aims to address this by providing essential resources for educating patients and providers, establishing key end-of-life quality measures, and broadening access to advance care planning through telehealth. As highlighted in the release, NPHI supports this legislation. Read more: https://lnkd.in/eHMMwZDW

On Tuesday, the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) finalized the 2025 hospice payment rule, approving a 2.9% increase in per diem payments. Although this is a slight improvement from the initially proposed 2.6% raise, we argue that it still falls short in the current climate. The hospice community continues to face significant challenges, including inflation, rising labor costs, and the ongoing impact of COVID-19. We believe that the rate increases have not adequately addressed these financial pressures. Here's what we had to say: ”NPHI is disheartened yet unsurprised by the finalized FY25 hospice payment rate update, which falls short in fairly compensating non-profit, community-based providers for their invaluable contributions to patients, families and communities,” NPHI indicated in the email. “Despite this setback, we appreciate many of the positive changes in this year’s rule and are committed to ongoing collaboration with CMS to ensure high-quality end-of-life care.” https://lnkd.in/gvicQ_R3

Community partnerships are key for organizations to thrive! “It really takes the entire community to serve this population and for us to be successful as an organization and, most importantly, for our patients to be successful in their journey of care. We are really required to partner with many entities,” Skelly Wingard, CEO of By The Bay Health, said at the Hospice News Elevate Conference. “A success factor is not only building the initial transactional partnership, but getting really deep about what these patients need and require in every community.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/eVzucs89
