4 ‘Pivot Points’ for Hospice, Palliative Care Growth
An article published in Hospice News recaps a recent GeriPal episode featuring Brynn Bowman, MPA (CAPC), Ira Byock, MD, and Kristi Newport, MD, on challenges the field is facing. It outlines four "pivot points" for sustainable growth as proposed by Dr. Byock: publishing clear standards, making meaningful data available, driving quality-based competition, and embracing the field’s authentic brand of expert care.
Per Brynn, the field is moving from “palliative care 2.0” (rapid growth) to “palliative care 3.0” (standardization, safeguarding quality, and integration).
