WEBINAR DETAILS
In today’s increasingly competitive and regulated hospice landscape, a slow or fragmented intake and admissions process can create unnecessary barriers for patients, families, and referral partners. Missed opportunities, delayed care, and frustrated referral sources don’t just impact census — they impact trust.
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.
