Palliative care can be received alongside curative-intended care, whereas hospice care requires the cessation of curative-intended treatments.

“So, as Bridget's totally correct, pallet of care is the larger umbrella. Um, hospice is this sort of subset of pal of care devoted to the final months of life. So to be real clear, same philosophy in a lot of ways, but by insurance and reimbursement lines and by policy designation, you can get pal of care alongside curative intended care. You cannot do so in hospice. When you go onto hospice, you have to give up that curative intended care like and not just that. I mean, you can't have an IV line generally speaking.”
