Section 8 - Hospice Utilization
Please provide the number of patients discharged during calendar year reported regardless of payment source. Count the patient only under the principal diagnosis for which the patient was admitted for hospice care. Report each patient only once. The ICD-9-CM codes are provided only as a guide for you. You may use your hospice's existing definitions for diagnosis groups or the LMRP diagnosis codes from your fiscal intermediary, provided they match in a general way with the ICD-9-CM codes suggested.
