Hospice care is distinguished from traditional care by the centers for medicare and medicaid services (cms) as end of life care that does not include curative measurers for those with life-limiting illnesses and given a prognosis of less than six months to live. The inter-disciplinary team includes a physician, registered nurse, chaplain, and social worker. Patients include those who qualify for medicare and medicaid and other various insurance programs, as well as those who are underinsured and uninsured, veterans and children. Halcyon hospice also runs a palliative care program, which coordinates care and services for people coping with chronic illness and assists individuals during the times of transition through an integrated personalized care plan and 24-7 support. This type of palliative care is available before a patient is eligible for hospice care. Palliative care (1) relieves pain and other symptoms, (2) increases comfort for patients and may include curative measures, and (3) provides practical assistance for patients and caregivers at home.as a result of financial decline arising from circumstances associated with the covid-19 pandemic, hync.
