Optimizing Palliative Care
The Institute makes the compelling business case for expanding palliative
care. To that end, it administers the Palliative Practice Group (PPG),
which involves palliative care and hospice clinicians, directors, and
managers from across the organization to monitor and continually improve
access to and quality of specialty palliative care.
The PPG supports workgroups workforce development (recruitment, specialty
training, retention), service delivery, operational effectiveness and
efficiency.
