CMS's ownership listing for this hospice was not included in the data provided, so families should confirm ownership type (for-profit, non-profit, or government) directly with the hospice or on Medicare Care Compare. Similarly, CMS has not published CAHPS family caregiver survey results — including the star rating, the percentage of caregivers who would definitely recommend the hospice, and the percentage rating it 9-10 — for this hospice. This is often the case for hospices with smaller patient counts, and it does not indicate poor quality; it simply means CMS has not yet published enough survey responses to report a score.
