Programs

  1. The center for hospice care (chc) is an independent, community-based, not-for-profit corporation that achieves its mission of "improving the quality of living" by providing comprehensive hospice, palliative, and home health care services to eligible patients and their families, as well as grief counseling and community education to any interested parties within its nine-county service area. No person is ever turned away due to lack of insurance or ability to pay, and chc provided services to 1,830 patients during 2025. Chc is supported primarily through third party reimbursements, approximately 92% of the net patient service revenue came from third-party reimbursements for the year ended december 31, 2025. Chc also received support from donor contributions, bequests, grants, and fundraising activities conducted through the hospice foundation, a related tax exempt organization. The organization determines each patient's ability to pay during the admission process. When a patient meets certain criteria, part or all of the patient's charges are deemed charity care and are not collected because the organization does not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as charity…

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
