Hospice docs, NPs, nurses, aides and caregivers NEED YOUR HELP
With #COVID, in person Face to face visits are NOT SAFE.
#HPM #PalliativeCare #ACHPN @AAHPM #NoFTF

Your caregivers hope is to get waivers to eliminate FTF or make telemedicine visits an alternative ASAP:
1)Will save hospice patient lives (and minimize spread to families visiting them from across the country)
2)Will save physician/nurse practitioner lives
3)Will allow physicians/nurse practitioners to focus more time on medical needs (Most hospice docs/NPs are #PCP docs/NPs)
4)Will reduce waste of scarce personal protective gear
5)Will have NO impact on CMS finances (no evidence these regulatory requirements save money)
