CMS Updates Payment Policies for Medicare Hospice Providers

Two days after a critical report into the quality and care of hospices caring for Medicare beneficiaries, CMS released a final payment rule for 2019, giving providers an increase of $340 million, and said it will update the information on its Hospice Compare website. The increase is a 1.8% rise from 2018.

Giving Hospice MORE Money even after a critical report into the ROTTEN quality of care and FRAUD!!!! How stupid!!!!
