Facts About Cancer and Hospice

  • A study by the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO) shows that patients under hospice care live 29 days longer than non-hospice patients. The numbers are particularly long for cancer patients.
  • More than 1 million patients need hospitalization a year with an average length of hospital stay of 6.3 days. But according to the CDC, hospice care can completely eliminate the need for hospitalization.
