NHPCO NewsLine Fall 2016 - 9

End-of-Life Care Advocacy in Action AMPLIFYING THE VOICE OF HOSPICE AND PALLIATIVE CARE ON CAPITOL HILL T he Hospice Action Network was created by NHPCO in April 2007 as The Alliance for Care at the End of Life and officially changed its name to the Hospice Action Network in 2010. Since its inception, the organization has worked to preserve, protect and strengthen the Medicare hospice benefit, and to ensure compassionate, high-quality care for all Americans facing life-limiting illness. HAN employs a variety of strategies to achieve that goal, from grassroots advocacy to social media to good old, shoe-leather lobbying. Several of those strategies were on display recently, as NHPCO and HAN hosted a Congressional briefing to bring attention to end-of-life issues, worked with Congressional champions to introduce new end-of-life bills, and trained the next generation of grassroots advocates to build support for our policy objectives. NHPCO and HAN hosted a Congressional briefing to bring attention to endof-life issues... NHPCO Being Mortal event brought Members of Congress, industry experts, and a well-known family caregiver together to discuss advance care planning Five Members of Congress Speak about End-of-Life Care On Wednesday, June 22, NHPCO hosted a Congressional screening of the PBS/Frontline documentary, Being Mortal, based on Dr. Atul Gawande's best-selling book of the same name. The film and accompanying discussion helped educate Members of Congress, congressional staff, policymakers and other stakeholders about the challenges the health care delivery system has serving individuals with advance and life-limiting illness and their families.
