Hospices Leverage Palliative Services in VBID Arena

Posted on Monday, October 5, 2020

Providers continue to expand palliative care offerings, and with VBID, hospices who have substantial palliative care operations in place are one step ahead.

“Through the demo it is a requirement to offer greater palliative services that might exist today,” said Susan Diamond, segment president of home solutions for Humana (NYSE: HUM). “The demo gives us the ability to provide additional support mechanisms for patients to really understand where the deficiencies in what hospices can do today, and where the opportunities are. Things like additional transitional care services, more robust palliative services before someone becomes eligible for hospice, greater continuity of care and smoother transitions, and greater coordination for the provider are all things that we think can be accomplished through the demo. It will eliminate some of the hard, sort of bright-line handoffs that occur today.”
