CCSQ will host a Special Open Door Forum (ODF) to allow hospices and other interested parties to ask questions on the development of a Hospice Outcomes & Patient Evaluation (HOPE) Tool. This SODF is part of a series of regular SODF’s CMS plans to host on this patient assessment tool and other key topics related to the Hospice Quality Reporting Program.
The purpose of a HOPE Tool is to develop outcome and other quality measures that relate to the care needs of people through the dying process and to ensure the safety and comfort of individuals enrolled in hospice institutions nationwide. The SODF will provide a status update and welcomes your questions.
