This can constitute a reason for suspension of Medicare payments when providers experience greater than average percentages of hospice live discharges. \nThere are five allowable live discharges within the Medicare hospice benefit. In this presentation we will walk through each of them — the requirements\, documentation\, and process each provider must follow. Hospice provider quality scores plus additional reports reflect live discharges; therefore\, it is imperative to understand how you are monitored in order to implement best practices with the live discharge process. Best practices\, reviewing trends\, reports\, avoiding “risky” admissions\, and how to improve overall agency quality standings will be addressed. \nTHIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES:\nHospice \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND?\nAdministrators\nMedical directors and hospice team physicians\nDirectors of patient care services/Directors of clinical services\nClinical management/hospice supervisors\nQA Directors/education directors\nHospice case managers and field staff RNs\nSocial work/counseling services\nIntake coordinators – hospice admission nurses \nTAKE-AWAY TOOLKIT\nEmployee training log\nInteractive quiz\nPDF of slides and speaker’s contact info for follow-up questions\nAttendance certificate provided to self-report CE credits \nNOTE: All materials are subject to copyright.

SUMMARY:HHWN WEBINAR: 2026 Hospice PEPPER Report
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\nSpot risk before it becomes a problem. The 2026 Hospice PEPPER Report provides valuable data that helps hospice organizations identify potential compliance risks\, compare performance with national benchmarks\, and prepare for Medicare audits. This on-demand webinar explains how to interpret your Hospice PEPPER Report\, understand target areas\, and use the information to strengthen compliance\, documentation\, and operational performance. \nKEY WEBINAR TAKEAWAYS\nPotential billing and payment vulnerabilities – recognizing outlier billing behaviors\nCompliance and audit activities – data-driven guidance for focused chart reviews and internal audits\nBenchmarked performance – comparing hospice-specific results against state\, MAC jurisdiction\, and national norms\nRegulatory scrutiny – identifying target areas that may attract medical review or additional oversight \nBONUS MATERIALS\nPEPPER Guide \nWEBINAR DETAILS\nEvery hospice organization receives valuable compliance data through the Hospice PEPPER Report\, but understanding how to interpret and apply that information can be challenging. Learning how to identify high-risk target areas and respond proactively can help organizations reduce Medicare audit risk\, strengthen documentation practices\, and improve overall compliance. \nPEPPER (Program for Evaluating Payment Patterns Electronic Report) is a CMS-sponsored compliance and benchmarking tool that provides hospice-specific Medicare claims data to identify billing patterns that may indicate a higher risk for improper Medicare payments. The report compares a hospice’s performance with state\, MAC jurisdiction\, and national percentiles to help organizations identify areas requiring further review and internal auditing. PEPPER is intended to support compliance programs and as proactive monitoring rather than determining whether improper payments actually occurred. \nHOW THE HOSPICE PEPPER REPORT SUPPORTS COMPLIANCE\nThe Hospice PEPPER Report is an important compliance resource that helps organizations evaluate billing trends\, identify potential risk areas\, and benchmark performance against state and national data. Reviewing the report regularly allows hospice leaders to strengthen documentation\, improve internal auditing\, support QAPI initiatives\, and prepare for Medicare medical reviews. \nTHIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES:\nHospice \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND?\nDirectors\nBilling staff\nAdministrators\nQuality assurance \nTAKE-AWAY TOOLKIT\nEmployee training log\nInteractive quiz\nPDF of slides and speaker’s contact info for follow-up questions\nAttendance certificate provided to self-report CE credits \nNOTE: All materials are subject to copyright.

SUMMARY:HHWN WEBINAR: Prioritizing Pain & Symptom Management
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\nComfort starts with care that listens. Effective hospice pain management and symptom management are essential to providing compassionate\, patient-centered end-of-life care. This webinar explores evidence-based approaches to pain assessment\, symptom control\, interdisciplinary collaboration\, and clinical decision-making to improve comfort and quality of life for hospice patients. \nKEY WEBINAR TAKEAWAYS\nTools to help assess patients’ pain levels\nPharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions\nDifferent levels of pain and appropriate interventions\nEducating patient\, family\, and caregivers \nBONUS MATERIALS\nUseful website links \nWEBINAR DETAILS\nManaging pain and other distressing symptoms is one of the primary goals of hospice care. By improving pain assessment\, symptom recognition\, and individualized care planning\, hospice professionals can enhance patient comfort\, support families\, and deliver high-quality end-of-life care while meeting clinical best practices. \nPain and symptom management is an interdisciplinary approach used in palliative care and hospice to relieve suffering\, reduce illness burden\, and improve overall quality of life. It integrates medication and supportive therapies to address physical\, emotional\, and spiritual distress and should be addressed on every plan of care. One of the biggest concerns of people dying on hospice is the fear of pain and suffering and CMS continues to add quality measures to HQRP\, including pain screening and assessment. \nIn this presentation\, we will dive into how to assess for pain and other symptoms\, as they impact multiple patient activities and quality of life. How to evaluate\, intervene\, educate\, document\, and manage pain and symptoms through a variety of interventions will be presented. It is critical that we continue to educate our staff on pain and symptom management\, including the importance of updating plans of care to meet the changing needs of patients and goals of care. \nBEST PRACTICES FOR HOSPICE PAIN & SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT\nHigh-quality hospice pain management begins with thorough patient assessments\, interdisciplinary collaboration\, and ongoing communication with patients and families. By recognizing changing symptoms early and developing individualized treatment plans\, hospice teams can improve comfort\, support patient goals\, and enhance overall quality of life. \nTHIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES:\nHospice\nPalliative Care \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND?\nMedical directors\, hospice team physicians\nDirectors of patient care\, clinical supervisors\nCase managers and all field staff\nCore hospice and palliative care team members \nTAKE-AWAY TOOLKIT\nEmployee training log\nInteractive quiz\nPDF of slides and speaker’s contact info for follow-up questions\nAttendance certificate provided to self-report CE credits \nNOTE: All materials are subject to copyright.

SUMMARY:HHWN WEBINAR: The Power of Differentiation
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\nStand out with value that referral sources can see. Standing out in today’s healthcare environment requires more than offering quality care. This webinar explores hospice marketing\, business development\, and differentiation strategies that help organizations build stronger referral relationships\, communicate their unique value\, and achieve sustainable hospice census growth. \nKEY WEBINAR TAKEAWAYS\nA differentiator is more than just a set of good talking points\nIdentifying the best differentiator(s) for your organization\nExamples of clinical\, programmatic\, professional\, and partnership differentiators \nBONUS MATERIALS\nOutline of differentiators to help create a high-performing senior living community growth strategy \nWEBINAR DETAILS\nAs more hospice providers enter the market\, organizations must clearly communicate what makes their care unique. Effective hospice differentiation helps strengthen referral partnerships\, improve community awareness\, and support long-term organizational growth while maintaining a patient-centered focus. \nWhat makes your hospice unique and different from the other hospices in your community? Most hospices try to differentiate themselves with strong talking points\, e.g. we are a nonprofit hospice\, our hospice is owned by people who live in the community\, we do same-day admissions (well I hope so!!) While these are nice talking points\, they do not deliver clear distinct value to referral sources\, families\, and patients. \nJoin us to learn how to go about developing powerful\, value-added clinical\, programmatic\, professional\, and partnership differentiators. Understanding how to develop true differentiators will help you serve more people\, grow\, and give the gift of hospice. \nHOW HOSPICE DIFFERENTIATION SUPPORTS LONG-TERM GROWTH\nSuccessful hospice organizations do more than provide excellent care—they clearly communicate what makes them different. By developing a strong brand\, strengthening referral relationships\, and demonstrating measurable value to patients and healthcare partners\, hospices can improve business development\, increase referrals\, and support sustainable organizational growth. \nTHIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES:\nHospice\nHome Care\nHome Health\nPalliative Care \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND?\nOwners\, presidents\, CEOs\nVPs of business development\, chief growth officers\, leadership for marketing and sales\nClinical leadership\, VPs of care management\nVPs of strategy and development\nAccount executives\, hospice sales staff \nTAKE-AWAY TOOLKIT\nEmployee training log\nInteractive quiz\nPDF of slides and speaker’s contact info for follow-up questions\nAttendance certificate provided to self-report CE credits \nNOTE: All materials are subject to copyright.

SUMMARY:HHWN WEBINAR: Responding to Patient Avoidance & Defenses
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\nMeet patient defenses with calm\, skilled communication. This presentation will help serious illness care professionals understand avoidance and defense mechanisms\, respond constructively\, and use practical scripts to reduce anxiety while preserving trust. \nKEY WEBINAR TAKEAWAYS\nAdaptive denial (which serves to preserve coping capacity) versus maladaptive defense mechanisms (that impede essential end-of-life care planning or symptom management)\nSpecific\, non-confrontational communication techniques (e.g.\, gentle reframing\, normalizing\, validating the underlying fear) to safely explore critical topics without escalating patient or family defenses\nHow to recognize personal emotional responses such as professional frustration\, urgency\, or the impulse to “fix” when encountering rigid patient avoidance\, and strategies for maintaining professional neutrality and empathy \nBONUS MATERIALS\nSeparate reference materials related to script options\nChecklist for clinicians identifying defense mechanisms \nWEBINAR DETAILS\nWhen facing serious illness\, patients and families often activate powerful\, unconscious psychological defense mechanisms such as denial\, projection\, and intellectualization to cope with overwhelming anxiety and a loss of control. For those working in serious illness care\, these behaviors can easily be misread as “resistance” or non-compliance\, triggering a professional urge to force reality or push for immediate closure. \nThis presentation will reframe these defenses not as barriers to be broken down\, but as vital psychological scaffolding protecting the patient’s inner stability. Rooted in psychodynamic theory and family systems models\, this talk will explore the unconscious fears driving patient retreat and examine the clinician’s own internal landscape (countertransference). Walk away with a deeper clinical understanding of serious illness coping styles and concrete\, real-time communication scripts designed to de-escalate anxiety\, honor emotional pacing\, and build a safe therapeutic alliance without stripping away a patient’s necessary emotional armor. \nTHIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES:\nHospice\nHome Care\nHome Health\nPalliative Care \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND?\nNurses\nPhysicians\nSocial workers\nCNAs\nChaplains \nTAKE-AWAY TOOLKIT\nEmployee training log\nInteractive quiz\nPDF of slides and speaker’s contact info for follow-up questions\nAttendance certificate provided to self-report CE credits \nNOTE: All materials are subject to copyright.
