Hello.... I work for a home care and hospice agency and we are looking into starting a pallitive care consulting service to help educate some of the facilities. Can anyone connect me to reimbursement, or guidelines with this.
Thank you

Hi Sarah,
Is your agency proposing to offer clinical education in palliative care to employees of local facilities? Would this be for hospitals and/or nursing facilities? Or are you considering offering palliative care consultation to nursing facilities? Information about how to proceed would differ depending on the service you are envisioning.
Send in more information and others may be able to advise you on next steps.
