Amedisys and Contessa Health are paving the way for how palliative care is delivered in the home. This blog addresses in-depth palliative care questions to understand how it works and how it's unique from hospice care. https://t.co/iiQj0L0lTj

Hospice care is fully covered by Medicare, but too many Americans are not taking full advantage of this unique, holistic benefit. Help us dispel the myths about hospice so families can make the right choice for their loved ones. https://t.co/YqeNr2wtG4

I had a great visit last week with our Nashville home health team. Meeting Amedisys caregivers is my favorite part of the job, seeing first hand the high-quality care they deliver and getting great feedback for me and my team.

[Richard Ashworth @RichardPharmD]

After just two weeks at Amedisys, it couldn’t feel more like home. The culture that has been built here and the talent that supports that culture is unique, patient-centered and aligns with my beliefs. Thank you for my warm welcome.
