Over the last decade, both hospice and assisted living facilities have seen significant growth as the elderly increasingly want to “age in place” at assisted living facilities and benefit from hospice care at the end of their lives. Meeting these resident goals requires that assisted living facilities and hospices establish solid partnerships. But how can you find a quality partner and what are the hallmarks of a successful partnership? This webinar will address the important legal and business considerations and how to navigate the risks that can arise when building and maintaining a relationship. Join us for insight on how recent legal developments, such as the Federal OIG’s 2015 report regarding assisted-living-based hospice patients, may impact relationships between assisted living facilities and hospices.
