When a loved one is seriously ill, families often have only days — sometimes hours — to make big decisions about care. One of those decisions is choosing a hospice provider.
Most families do not know where to start. They may not realize that the federal government publishes quality scores for every Medicare-certified hospice in the country. Or that some hospices send nurses every week while others are harder to reach. These differences matter enormously.
We built HospiceNearMe.org because every family deserves to see this information clearly, in plain language, without having to dig through government spreadsheets.
We take data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and organize it into a searchable directory. We add plain-language explanations of what the quality scores mean. We write guides to help families understand their options.
We do not accept payment from hospice providers. No provider can pay to appear on this site or to rank higher. Every listing earns its place by being Medicare-certified.
All provider data comes from the CMS Provider Data Catalog, updated each time CMS releases new data. The current dataset is from February 2026, with quality scores covering April 2024 through March 2025.
We are a small team that believes public health data should be easy for ordinary people to use — not just researchers and administrators. We are not affiliated with any hospice company, insurance company, or the government.
No hospice provider can pay to appear here or rank higher. Our order is based only on CMS data.
All quality scores come directly from CMS — the same agency that runs Medicare. We do not make them up.
We translate government data into words that any family member can understand on a hard day.
No fees, no sign-ups, no subscriptions. This information belongs to the public.
We update listings every time CMS publishes new data. February 2026 is our current release.
We read every message and do our best to respond within two business days.
