Important legal information about Find Hospices directory

Effective Date: September 8, 2026

Who We Are

This website is operated by National Hospice Directory LLC ("Find Hospices," "we," "our," or "us").

Find Hospices is an independent, third-party informational resource designed to help families learn about licensed hospice providers.

  • We are not a healthcare provider.
  • We do not provide medical care, diagnosis, or treatment.
  • We are not affiliated with any hospice agency, hospital, government entity, law firm, funeral home, or cremation services provider.

We aggregate publicly available information from:

  • Federal government databases (CMS Care Compare, CAHPS, Hospice Quality Reporting Program)
  • Ohio Department of Health (licensing and certification records)
  • Provider websites and verified public records
  • Accreditation organizations and government data sources

Our goal is to help families access information quickly and easily during difficult times.

Independence, Paid Visibility, and Advertising

Find Hospices, operated by National Hospice Directory LLC, is independently operated and is not owned, operated, or controlled by any hospice organization, funeral home, cremation provider, or law firm.

We do not accept referral fees, commissions, or compensation tied to patient admissions, clinical decisions, or the selection of funeral, cremation, elder law, or estate planning services.

Hospice providers may purchase paid listing levels (Verified, Featured, or Premium) as flat-fee digital directory advertising and enhanced profile placement. Fees are not based on patient admissions, referrals, leads, or clinical outcomes.

Paid placement:

  • May appear more prominently in the default directory view (Verified, Featured, or Premium)
  • Does not alter CMS ratings, CAHPS scores, Ohio Department of Health licensing information, or any objective metrics
  • Does not imply endorsement or recommendation
  • Does not change results when families sort or filter by quality measures
  • Never affects how publicly sourced data is displayed

Paid listing levels (Verified, Featured, or Premium) may appear more prominently in the default directory view. Payment never changes CMS ratings, CAHPS scores, licensing information, public reviews, or results when families sort or filter by quality measures. Paid placement is not an endorsement or recommendation.

Paid listing levels are sold as flat-fee digital directory advertising and enhanced profile placement. Fees are not based on patient admissions, referrals, or clinical outcomes.

All objective quality metrics remain unaltered and freely available to families.

Trusted Community Resources is a separate informational section featuring funeral homes, cremation providers, and elder law and estate planning attorneys. Trusted Community Resources listings are paid informational advertising. They are separate from the hospice directory, do not affect hospice search results or quality data, and are not endorsements, recommendations, or referrals. Find Hospices does not provide medical, legal, funeral, or financial advice.

Provider Information Accuracy

We make reasonable efforts to maintain accurate information but do not guarantee that provider information is complete, current, or error-free. Provider information can change between updates, and users should verify important information directly with the provider or applicable government source.
