Madison, WI (Oct. 8, 2024) – SSM Health at Home is excited to announce its new membership to the Wisconsin Hospice & Palliative Care Collaborative (WHPCC), comprised of Wisconsin’s leading nonprofit hospice and palliative care organizations.
WHPCC is a strategic partnership focused on enabling its members to enhance access to quality care for chronically and seriously ill patients and reduce the overall cost of care without compromising quality and outcomes in an era marked by rapidly changing reimbursement factors.
