Special Disease Management Programs

Lung Care Program

Our Lung Care program provides specialized hospice and palliative care for individuals with advanced lung disease. Advanced lung disease is often associated with a high level of symptom burden that significantly reduces patients’ quality of life and can be very stressful on caregivers.

Hosparus Health can help manage the symptoms of advanced lung disease while decreasing or eliminating the need to return to the hospital. Care is provided wherever a patient calls home.

• Reduce ER visits and hospital stays
