Why Calvary supports PCHETA (H.R. 647/S.2080)
This important new Bill is making its way through Congress. It recognizes a critical and growing need for hospice and palliative care services and education in this country. Our participation – and yours – will be critical.
Calvary has provided palliative care to more patients than any other hospital or medical center in the world. We are considered by many national and global health care organizations to be the leading expert on palliative care.
