Why Palliative Programs Fail, and How They Can Succeed

Why Palliative Programs Fail, and How They Can Succeed

Webinar • March 4,  2026 • 12:00pm —1:00pm CST

OVERVIEW:

With limited Medicare reimbursement and evolving regulations, palliative care is often described as the “wild west”—and too frequently viewed as a financial loss. But it doesn’t have to be.

This webinar explores why many palliative care programs struggle and outlines a disciplined, clinically driven approach that can improve patient outcomes while creating sustainable financial performance. Learn how effective clinical risk assessment can enhance the patient experience, support earlier identification of hospice-eligible patients, and unlock opportunities for positive margins.

For organizations offering both home health and hospice services, this session will also highlight how timely transitions from managed care to traditional Medicare reimbursement can strengthen care continuity and financial results. The financial impact of improved patient care through a well-designed palliative care program will be clearly quantified.

Learning Objectives:

Participants will be able to:

  • Understand the common reasons palliative care programs fail

  • Apply a disciplined clinical risk assessment model to palliative care delivery

  • Identify hospice-eligible patients earlier to improve outcomes and care transitions

  • Leverage palliative care to support appropriate Medicare reimbursement pathways

  • Quantify the financial opportunity of a high-performing palliative care program

SPEAKERS: Rory Farrand, MS, MA, MSN, APRN-BC, has over 20 years of managerial, advocacy  and clinical experience in palliative care, geriatric primary care, and Alzheimer’s/dementia care. Rory’s senior leadership and advocacy experience include her roles as vice president of palliative care for national hospice providers as well as with the former NHPCO. As a clinician leader she has cultivated expertise in clinical healthcare management and operations, innovative program development and training.

 Brad Borbidge, CPA  has four decades of home health and hospice financial leadership experience providing compliance and operational consulting services throughout the country with a primary focus in New England. Brad developed operational indicators that are used to help home health and hospice providers identify operational opportunities to improve their operating margins without compromising patient care. Brad routinely presents to senior leadership and management teams.

This webinar is designed to help home care leaders move from emotional hesitation to confident action when navigating challenging workplace conversations.

Objectives:

By participating in this webinar, participants will:

  • Recognize the emotional and cognitive factors that make conversations challenging and understand how these factors influence leadership behavior and communication outcomes in healthcare settings.

  • Apply a structured approach to preparing for challenging conversations by clarifying intent, managing emotional reactions, and focusing on desired outcomes rather than fear or avoidance.

  • Demonstrate practical strategies for engaging in difficult conversations with confidence and clarity, while maintaining trust, accountability, and psychological safety.

Drawing on real-world executive experience and evidence-based leadership frameworks, Stephanie supports organizations in embedding emotional intelligence into hiring, onboarding, leadership development, and culture—not as a “soft skill,” but as a core leadership competency.

Stephanie is the owner and founder of Health Bridge Consulting and is known for her practical, candid, and refreshingly human approach to leadership development—especially in environments where the stakes are high and the pressure is real.
