Hospices that served fewer than 50 survey-eligible decedents/caregivers in CY 2022 (January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022 [or from assignment of CCN]) can apply for an exemption from participation in the Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS) Hospice Survey for CY 2023.

Please note, exemptions based on size are active for one year only. If a hospice continues to meet the eligibility requirements for this exemption in subsequent years, the organization will need to again request the exemption.

The Participation Exemption for Size Form will be available to complete and submit online until December 31. To view or complete the 2023 Participation Exemption for Size Form, please click here.
