“Don’t Get Fooled”
In the hospice industry, aggregators refer to companies or organizations that consolidate hospice care services or facilities under a single management or network. These entities might acquire, manage, or affiliate with multiple hospice care providers to offer a range of services in various locations. This consolidation can provide several benefits for the company, such as improved operational efficiencies, and enhanced negotiating power with payers.
Aggregators in the hospice industry might include large healthcare companies, private equity firms, or specialized hospice chains that seek to expand their presence in this sector through acquisitions or partnerships. These organizations often aim to streamline services and leverage economies of scale to make more profit.
Some people feel that there are way too many big corporations that allow their corporate accountants to control the level of care their loved one receives.
You should know who’s behind the hospice company you are considering, how long their staff has been with them, and what their previous patient’s family thinks of their service.
TIP: Look at the website. Often, you’ll see the same photos and the same text on what appear to be two different companies’ websites. This is the biggest sign that they are owned by the same large corporation.
