Faculty:Spears

The heart of hospice is caring for the patient but caring for the business of hospice must be the focus of the administrator. How can you get on top of the business of hospice and stay there? This program traces the business activities that the hospice administrator must manage through one operational month in the hospice year. While the hospice administrator may be a clinician with clinical oversight duties as well, the focus for this program is the operational and financial activites that when performed well, signal a healthy business environment. The program includes guidance on budgeting, contracting, staffing, billing, collecting, compensating staff and more to assist the administrator in establishing a report card on the hospice's overall performance. Caring for the hospice business IS caring for the hospice patient!
