Turn hospice admissions into a clear, compassionate fast track to care and stand out in today’s competitive hospice environment.
Slow or fragmented intake and admissions processes
create barriers for patients, families, and referral partners and undermine
trust. This webinar will equip hospice leaders and business development teams
with practical strategies to remove internal bottlenecks, streamline workflows,
and improve speed, clarity, and consistency at every step of the admissions
journey.

WEBINAR DETAILS
This webinar is designed
for hospice executives, operational leaders, intake managers, and business
development professionals who are ready to modernize admissions workflows,
reduce friction, and make it easier for patients to access hospice care when
they need it most.
Referral partners expect speed,
clarity, and consistency. Patients and families need simple, compassionate
access to care during vulnerable moments. Hospices that remove internal
barriers and align intake with growth strategy are better positioned to serve
more patients — and serve them sooner. This session will give you actionable
insights to align operations and business development, turning intake and
admissions into a competitive advantage instead of a bottleneck
