10.03.2008

With palliative care programs emerging as an important new trend in United States hospitals, the Center to Advance Palliative Care (CAPC) released its state-by-state "report card". The report, America's Care of Serious Illness: A State-by-State Report Card on Access to Palliative Care in our Nation's Hospitals, is based on a study published in the October 2008 issue of the Journal of Palliative Medicine.
