What does the Hospice Care Index measure, and what does it not?
The Hospice Care Index is a score out of 10 that counts how many of ten Medicare claims-based indicators a hospice meets. It measures patterns of visits and discharges. It does not measure bedside manner, and it is not a patient satisfaction score.
| Hospice Care Index | Family caregiver survey | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it comes from | Medicare billing claims over two years | A survey mailed to the main family caregiver after a death |
| What it shows | How often nurses visit, weekend care, visits near death, and patterns of live discharge | Communication, timely help, respect, symptom control and whether families would recommend the hospice |
| What it misses | How families felt about the care | Small hospices, which often have too few responses to report |
Does Medicare pay for hospice care in Oklahoma?
Yes. Medicare covers hospice for people a doctor certifies as terminally ill with a life expectancy of six months or less who choose comfort care. It covers the nurse, aide, social worker and chaplain visits, medications for the terminal illness, and equipment, with at most a small copay for prescriptions and respite stays. It does not cover room and board in assisted living or a nursing home.
Why do so many Oklahoma City hospices have no published scores?
4 of the 43 hospices here have no index score. Medicare only publishes results once a hospice has enough claims in the two-year window, and Oklahoma City and Oklahoma, Cleveland, Canadian, Logan, Grady and McClain counties has many recently certified, small hospices. A missing score tells you a hospice is new or small. It does not tell you whether it is good.
