Published by Frédéric Michas, Aug 27, 2020
This statistic displays the distribution of U.S. hospice deaths by primary diagnosis in 2018. In that year, 17.4 percent of hospice deaths were due to cardiac and circulatory problems. Hospices provide medical care, pain management, as well as emotional and spiritual support. However, care for a patient is emphasized in a hospice where hospice staff typically visits a patient.
