CMS Mandate Reality: Whether you want it or not, QAPI is required. Let us take this pressure off your already busy administrative staff who are juggling hiring, operations, and countless other priorities.

Significant Cost Savings

Our comprehensive hospice QAPI services cost approximately $25,000 annually – a fraction of what you’d pay for a full-time QAPI coordinator (typically $60,000-$80,000+ with benefits). Get expert-level QAPI support without the overhead of additional staff.

Solve Your Staffing Challenges

Many hospice agencies are laying off QAPI staff or reassigning them to field work. We understand staffing is your biggest challenge. Partner with us to maintain compliance without the burden of recruiting, training, and retaining specialized QAPI personnel.

Survey-Ready Compliance

We ensure your hospice meets all CMS QAPI requirements for surveys and accreditation. Our partnership approach means we work alongside your team to strengthen your quality programs, not just complete paperwork.
