About this hospice
Hillhurst Hospice, Inc is a Medicare-certified hospice serving the Los Angeles, California area, with certification effective December 6, 2023. The CMS data provided does not include an ownership type designation for this hospice, so families should confirm this detail directly with the provider or on Medicare Care Compare.
Because Hillhurst Hospice is relatively new to Medicare certification, CMS has not yet published CAHPS family caregiver survey results for this hospice — no star rating, no percentage of caregivers who would definitely recommend it, and no percentage rating it 9-10 are currently available. This is common for hospices with a shorter certification history or smaller patient counts, and it should not be read as a sign of poor quality; it simply means CMS has not yet collected or released enough survey responses to report results.
Similarly, CMS has not published a composite process measure score for Hillhurst Hospice, so no comparison to the California state average composite score of 93.41 can be made at this time. According to the data provided, Hillhurst Hospice serves 1 ZIP code from its Los Angeles office in Los Angeles County.
All figures above come from CMS Care Compare data as provided. As with all Medicare-certified hospices, the Medicare hospice benefit covers hospice care for eligible patients when a doctor certifies eligibility; no cost details beyond this are available or implied here.
