Preparing for Hospice Election Addendum Requirement
The hospice final rule…
continues to place important focus on the election addendum requirement and the need for clear communication with beneficiaries and their representatives. Agencies must be prepared to explain, document, and provide information related to items, services, and drugs that may be unrelated to the terminal illness and related conditions when requested.
We know these regulatory updates can feel overwhelming, and our team is here to help. We can support your agency with education, policy review, documentation guidance, process development, and staff training to help ensure your hospice program is prepared and confident.
If your team has questions about the hospice election addendum requirement or would like assistance reviewing your current process, we would be happy to partner with you.
